  • the DIMD method performs a texture gradient processing to derive 2 best modes. These two modes and planar mode are then applied to the block and their predictors are weighted averaged.
  • the selection of DIMD is signaled in the bitstream for intra coded blocks using a flag.
  • the intra prediction mode is derived in the reconstruction process using the same previously encoded neighboring pixels. If not, the intra prediction mode is parsed from the bitstream as in classical intra coding mode.
  • a set of neighboring pixels on which we will perform a gradient analysis is first selected. For normativity purposes, these pixels should be in the decoded / reconstructed pool of pixels. As shown in FIG.8, a template surrounding the current block by T pixels to the left, and T pixels above is chosen. Next, a gradient analysis is performed on the pixels of the template. This allows to determine a main angular direction for the template, which is assumed (and which may be the premise of the method in the disclosure) to have a high chance to be identical to the one of the current block.
  • a simple 3x3 Sobel gradient filter is used, defined by the following matrices that will be convoluted with the template: [0138] For each pixel of the template, each of these two matrices is multiplied point-by-point with the 3x3 window centered around the current pixel and composed of its 8 direct neighbors, and sum the result. Thus, two values Gx (from the multiplication with Mx), and Gy (from the multiplication with My) corresponding to the gradient at the current pixel are obtained, in the horizontal and vertical direction respectively.
  • FIG. 9 shows the convolution process.
  • the blue pixel is the current pixel.
  • Red pixels including the blue
  • Gray pixels are pixels on which the gradient analysis is not possible due to lack of some neighbors.
  • Violet pixels are available (reconstructed) pixels outside of the considered template, used in the gradient analysis of the red pixels. In case a violet pixel is not available (due to blocks being too close to the border of the picture for instance), the gradient analysis of all red pixels that use this violet pixel is not performed.
  • G intensity
  • O orientation
  • the orientation of the gradient is then converted into an intra angular prediction mode, used to index a histogram (first initialized to zero).
  • the histogram value at that intra angular mode is increased by G.
  • the histogram will contain cumulative values of gradient intensities, for each intra angular mode.
  • the IPMs corresponding to two tallest histogram bars are selected for the current block. If the maximum value in the histogram is 0 (meaning no gradient analysis was able to be made, or the area composing the template is flat), then the DC mode is selected as intra prediction mode for the current block.
  • the two TPMs corresponding to two tallest histogram of oriented gradient (HoG) bars are combined with the Planar mode.
  • the prediction fusion is applied as a weighted average of the above three predictors.
  • the weight of planar is fixed to 21/64 (—1/3).
  • the remaining weight of 43/64 (—2/3) is then shared between the two HoG IPMs, proportionally to the amplitude of their HoG bars.
  • FIG. 9 visualises this process.
  • Derived intra modes are included into the primary list of intra most probable modes (MPM), so the DIMD process is performed before the MPM list is constructed.
  • the primary derived intra mode of a DTMD block is stored with a block and is used for MPM list construction of the neighboring blocks.
  • TM template matching
  • Interleaved List-0 MV candidates and List-1 MV candidates are derived directly from the regular merge candidate list, where List-0 MV candidates are higher priority than List-1 MV candidates.
  • a pruning method with an adaptive threshold based on the current CU size is applied to remove redundant MV candidates.
  • Interleaved List-1 MV candidates and List-0 MV candidates are further derived directly from the regular merge candidate list, where List-1 MV candidates are higher priority than List-0 MV candidates.
  • the same pruning method with the adaptive threshold is also applied to remove redundant MV candidates.
  • a CU-level flag is further signaled to indicate that TM is enabled for GPM, that is, both motion vectors of GPM are further refined using template matching.
  • template matching one of following template type may be used for the refinement, i.e., above (A), left (L), above plus left (A+L) of the current block.
  • the template type is selected based on the angle parameter of GPM, as in Table 3 below.
  • the motion is then refined by minimizing the difference between the current template and the template in the reference picture using the same search pattern of merge mode with half-pel interpolation filter disable.
  • Template matching-based GPM split modes reordering method is first proposed in the JVET document JVET-Y0135.
  • the template-matching cost for each GPM split mode is calculated and the split modes are reordered based on the cost both at the encoder and decoder side. Only the best N, where N is smaller than or equal to 64, candidates are available.
  • the GPM mode index is signaled using Golomb-Rice code instead of fixed-length binary code.
  • the reordering method for GPM split modes is a two-step process after the respective reference templates of the two GPM partitions in a coding unit are generated, as follows:
  • the final prediction samples are generated by weighting inter predicted samples and intra predicted samples for each GPM-separated region. Each part contains flag to indicate whether inter or intra prediction is used.
  • the inter predicted samples are derived by the same scheme of the current GPM, whereas the intra predicted samples are derived by an intra prediction mode (IPM) candidate list and an index signaled from the encoder.
  • the IPM candidate list size is pre-defined as 3.
  • the available IPM candidates are the parallel angular mode against the GPM block boundary (Parallel mode as shown in FIG. 13 A), the perpendicular angular mode against the GPM block boundary (Perpendicular mode as shown in FIG. 13B), and the Planar mode as shown in FIG. 13C, respectively.
  • GPM with intra and intra prediction as shown FIG. 12D is restricted in the method to reduce the signaling overhead for IPMs and avoid an increase in the size of the intra prediction circuit on the hardware decoder.
  • a direct motion vector and IPM storage on the GPM-blending area is introduced to further improve the coding performance.
  • the IPM list of GPM intra can be further improved by DIMD, TIMD, and angular modes from the neighboring blocks. More specifically, the parallel mode is used in the first place of IPM list, then IPM candidates of TIMD, DIMD, and angular modes from neighbors are used, pruning between candidates are performed. [0161] As for the neighboring mode derivation, there are five positions for available neighboring blocks at most, but they are restricted by the angle of GPM block boundary as shown in Table 4 below.
  • the Geometric Partitioning Mode (GPM) was adopted.
  • GPM was further enhanced by, e.g., GPM+TM, GPM+MMVD, and Inter+Intra GPM.
  • the blending strength of GPM has not been improved since the original GPM design. That is, as shown in FIG. 16, the blending strength or blending area width 9 is fixed for all different contents.
  • the blending strength is related to the blending area between two GPM partitions.
  • the blending strength indicates the blending area size between the two GPM partitions.
  • the blending strength may be a parameter that defines the width of the blending area between two GPM partitions.
  • the weighing values in the blending mask can be given by a ramp function
  • blending area width cannot always provide the best blending quality for various types of video contents.
  • screen video contents usually contain strong textures and sharp edges, which prefer a narrow blending area to reserve the edge information.
  • blending is generally required; but the blending area width is dependent on a number of factors, e.g., the actual boundaries of the moving objects and the motion distinctiveness of two partitions.
  • one adaptive blending scheme is proposed for the GPM, which dynamically adjusts the width of the blending area surround the GPM partition boundary.
  • the width of the blending area i.e., 6
  • the optimal blending area width is determined for each GPM CU at the encoder and signaled to the decoder based on one syntax element merge_gpm_blending_width_idx.
  • all predefined blending strength values are shiftable while all the clipping and shifting operations in the existing GPM blending process can be kept without any changes.
  • the range of the weights is increased from [0, 8] to [0, 32] to accommodate the increased width of the GPM blending area.
  • the weights are calculated as
  • This index is binarized with fixed length code and signaled without context model, which is not efficient.
  • several schemes are proposed to improve the signaling. Specifically, index signaling method for geometric partitioning mode with adaptive blending is improved for better coding efficiency.
  • the blending indices that correspond to the predefined values of ⁇ are binarized with variable length code.
  • truncated unary code is used to binarize the blending index.
  • the binarized values in the third column may be signaled to indicate the blending index that corresponds to the blending strength for a coding block.
  • the benefit of the truncated unary code is that the low frequency index may use longer code words, whereas the high frequency index may use shorter code words.
  • the average signaling cost is lower. That is, a lower index value corresponds to a blending strength of higher use frequency, and is binarized with a shorter codeword.
