Abstract: A method related to adaptive usage of pixel-based and block-based affine motion compensation and includes performing sub-block-based affine transform prediction on an affine block with a first sub-block size if the first sub-block size is greater than or equal to a first sub-block size threshold. If the first sub-block size is less than the first sub-block size threshold, it is determined whether a pixel-based motion vector field is not applied for performing motion compensation for the affine block. If the motion vector field is not applied, a sub-block-based affine motion prediction is performed with a second sub-block size that is based on the first sub-block size. If the pixel-based motion vector field is applied, motion compensation is performed for a sub-block of the affine block using the pixel-based motion vector field.
