    Abstract: A video system that partitions slices of video pictures into slice chunks is provided. A video decoder receives data from a bitstream to be decoded as a current picture of a video. When a first syntax element in a picture parameter set (PPS) of the current picture indicates that one or more slices of the current picture are allowed to be divided into multiple slice chunks and when a second syntax element in a slice header of a current slice of the current picture indicates that data of the current slice is encoded and delivered in two or more slice chunks, the video decoder parses and specifies sizes and positions of the slice chunks of the current slice and reconstructs the current picture based on the slice chunks of the current slice.

    Abstract: Method and apparatus for constrained de-blocking filter are disclosed. According to one method, a current block is partitioned into a plurality of sub-blocks using SDIP (Short Distance Intra Prediction mod). A first Bs (boundary strength) for an internal block boundary of the plurality of sub-blocks is determined by setting the first Bs to a second Bs of an Intra-coded boundary block of the current block. De-blocking process is applied, using the first Bs, to reconstructed samples across the internal block boundary of the plurality of sub-blocks to generate filtered-reconstructed samples. In another method, the current block is partitioned into two sub-blocks using SBT (sub-block transform) horizontally or vertically and the first Bs (boundary strength) is determined for an internal block boundary between the two sub-blocks by setting the first Bs to a second Bs of a non-zero cbf (coded block flag) block of the two sub-blocks in step.

    Abstract: A method for performing transform skip mode (TSM) in a video decoder is provided. A video decoder receives data from a bitstream to be decoded as a plurality of video pictures. The video decoder parses the bitstream for a first syntax element in a sequence parameter set (SPS) of a current sequence of video pictures. When the first syntax element indicates that transform skip mode is allowed for the current sequence of video pictures and when transform skip mode is used for a current block in a current picture of the current sequence, the video decoder reconstructs the current block by using quantized residual signals that are not transformed.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus of video coding using history-based candidate derivation are disclosed. According to one method, a current block is inside a Shared Merge candidate list Region (SMR) or a history-based parallel processing region is received. The current block is encoded or decoded using a Merge candidate list. Only if the current block is one of first-coded N (N≥0) blocks, one of last-coded N blocks, or one of selected N blocks, the history-based candidate list is updated after the current block is encoded or decoded. In one embodiment, Merge candidate list is pre-generated for the current block in the SMR and is separately generated for the current block in the history-based parallel processing region. In another method, if the current block is inside the SMR or the history-based parallel processing region, the current block is encoded or decoded using a history-based candidate list associated with the root CU.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus of entropy coding of coding symbols using Context-Based Adaptive Binary Arithmetic Coder (CABAC) are disclosed. According to the present invention, CABAC encoding or decoding is applied to a current bin of a binary data of a current coding symbol according to a current probability for a binary value of the current bin and a current range associated with the current state of arithmetic coder. An LPS probability index corresponding to an inverted current probability or the current probability is derived depending on whether the current probability is greater than 0.5. A range index is derived for identifying one range interval containing the current range. An LPS range is then derived using one or more mathematical operations comprising calculating a multiplication of a first value related to the LPS probability index and a second value related to the range index n.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus Inter prediction for video coding including IBC (Intra Block Copy) coding tool are disclosed. According to one method, a current permitted band inside the current picture for the current block is identified. A target IBC candidate is selected, where a target block vector of the target IBC candidate points from the current block to a target reference block in the current picture. An adjusted candidate list is generated by taking into account of the target IBC candidate and the current permitted band. The current motion information associated with the current block is encoded using the adjusted candidate list at the video encoder side or decoded using the adjusted candidate list at the video decoder side using the adjusted candidate list. In another method, a syntax for a target MVD (Motion Vector Difference) is decoded without sign information or with reduced sign information of the target MVD.

    Abstract: A deblocking filtering method includes receiving reconstructed video data associated with a block boundary in a video coding system. The block boundary has N lines of samples crossing the block boundary from a P side to a Q side of the boundary. The method further includes determining whether to apply a first filter set to reduce block artifacts at the block boundary based on whether a first inter-side difference of a first line of the N lines of samples is greater than an inter-side difference threshold, determining a filter length of a filter in the first filter set based on a first side length of the P side, and a second side length of the Q side when it is determined to apply the first filter set, and applying at least one filter in the first filter set with the determined filter length on the block boundary.

    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure provide a video coding method for processing a current prediction unit (PU) with a sub-PU temporal motion vector prediction (TMVP) mode. The method can include receiving the current PU including sub-PUs, determining an initial motion vector that is a motion vector of a spatial neighboring block of the current PU, performing a searching process to search for a main collocated picture in a sequence of reference pictures of the current PU based on the initial motion vector, and obtaining collocated motion information in the main collocated picture for the sub-PUs of the current PU. The searching process can include turning on motion vector scaling operation for searching a subset of the sequence of reference pictures, and turning off the motion vector scaling operation for searching the other reference pictures in the sequence of reference pictures.
