Abstract: A video decoding device receives a bitstream including a prediction block and a residual block with coefficients transformed by a Spatial Varying Transform (SVT). The video decoding device determines a type of SVT employed to transform the coefficients in the residual block and determines a position of the SVT relative to the residual block by determining a candidate position step size and a position index for the SVT. The video decoding device applies an inverse transform to the coefficients based on the SVT type and position to create a reconstructed residual block. The video decoding device applies the reconstructed residual block to the prediction block to reconstruct a video block and reconstructs a video sequence for display, the video sequence including a video frame that includes the reconstructed video block.

Abstract: A mechanism for position dependent spatial varying transform (SVT) for video coding. A prediction block and a corresponding transformed residual block are received at a decoder. A type of spatial varying transform (SVT) employed to generate the transformed residual block is determined. A position of the SVT relative to the transformed residual block is also determined. An inverse of the SVT is applied to the transformed residual block to reconstruct a reconstructed residual block. The reconstructed residual block is then combined with the prediction block to reconstruct an image block.

Abstract: A video encoder, a video decoder, and a corresponding method are provided. The method includes: when a plurality of preset conditions are satisfied, performing bi-directional optical flow BDOF processing on a current picture block, to obtain a predicted sample value of the current picture block, where the plurality of preset conditions include at least a condition that a height H of the current picture block is greater than or equal to 8, a width W of the current picture block is greater than or equal to 8, and a product of the width W of the current picture block and the height H of the current picture block is greater than 128. Thus encoding/decoding complexity and prediction accuracy can be balanced to some extent.
