Abstract: An inter-prediction method and apparatus are provided. An initial motion vector is obtained for a current block. Search space positions are determined according to the initial motion vector. Matching costs for the search space positions are checked according to a checking order to select a target search space position with a minimal matching cost. A refining motion vector of the current block is determined based on the initial motion vector and the target search space position. A central search space position is determined first according to the checking order, and the central search space position is pointed to by the initial motion vector.

Abstract: A method for constructing a most probable mode (MPM) list for prediction process corresponding to video block is provided. The method includes determining whether a left block of a current coding block is available, in response to determining that the left block of the current coding block is available, adding an intra prediction mode of the left block into an MPM list; determining whether an above block of the current coding block is available, in response to determining that the above block of the current coding block is available, adding an intra prediction mode of the above block into the MPM list; adding an offset to the prediction mode of the left block to obtain a new prediction mode; and adding the above-offset prediction mode into the MPM list when the above-offset prediction mode is not in the MPM list.

Abstract: A method for deblocking a chroma block edge between a first chroma block of a first image block and a second chroma block of a second image block. The method includes a decision process which includes: determining a first chroma quantization parameter for the first chroma block based on a first luma quantization parameter of a first luma block of the first image block and a chroma QP mapping table for the first chroma block; determining a second chroma quantization parameter for the second chroma block based on a second luma quantization parameter of a second luma block of the second image block and a chroma QP mapping table for the second chroma block; determining an averaged and rounded chroma quantization parameter based on the first chroma quantization parameter and the second chroma quantization parameter; and determining a threshold parameter based on the averaged and rounded chroma quantization parameter.

Abstract: A method of coding implemented by a decoding device is provided. The method includes parsing a bitstream to obtain a flag from a picture header of the bitstream, wherein the flag indicates whether a current picture is I picture. when the flag indicates that the current picture is I picture, a syntax element designed for inter prediction is inferred to a default value; or when the flag indicates that the current picture is P or B picture, obtaining a syntax element designed for inter prediction from the picture header.

Abstract: Devices and methods for intra prediction of DC intra prediction mode are provided. The method includes: obtaining a value of an intra prediction reference line index of a transform block; obtaining prediction samples of the transform block based on reference samples from a reference line. The reference line is indexed by the value of the intra prediction reference line index. The method introduces a harmonization of MRL and non-directional intra prediction (i.e. DC). The harmonization consists of aligning the reference samples from a reference line, which is indexed by the value of the intra prediction reference line index.

Abstract: A deblocking method is provided for deblocking a sub-partition boundary within a coding block during image encoding and/or image decoding process. The coding block is coded in an intra prediction mode and the coding block is partitioned into sub-partitions comprising a first sub-partition and a second sub-partition that is adjacent to the first sub-partition. The method comprises: determining a maximum filter length to be 1 for a first/second sub-partition when a width of the first or second sub-partition is 4 samples, or when a height of the first or second sub-partition is 4 samples; modifying a value of up to one sample of the first or second sub-partition, wherein the value of the up to one sample is obtained from a row or a column of the first or second sub-partition that is perpendicular to and adjacent to the sub-partitions boundary between the first sub-partition and the second sub-partition.
