    Abstract: A video coding mechanism is disclosed. The mechanism includes partitioning an image to create at least one coding tree unit (CTU) with at least one coding tree node. The mechanism further includes determining that the coding tree node height is twice a maximum transform unit (TU) height and the coding tree node width is twice a maximum TU width. The mechanism further includes selecting a split mode for the coding tree node based on the determination. The split mode is selected from a quad-tree split, a horizontal binary-tree split, and no split. The mechanism further includes applying the split mode to the coding tree node to create one or more coding units (CUs). The mechanism further includes encoding the CUs into a bitstream. The mechanism further includes transmitting the bitstream toward a decoder.

    Abstract: Inter prediction method and apparatus are disclosed to resolve problems in the conventional technology that prediction samples obtained in an inter prediction mode are spatially discontinuous, prediction efficiency is affected, and prediction residual energy is relatively high. The method includes: parsing a bitstream to obtain motion information of a to-be-processed picture block; performing motion compensation on the to-be-processed picture block based on the obtained motion information, to obtain a prediction block of the to-be-processed picture block, where the prediction block of the to-be-processed picture block includes a prediction value of a target sample; and performing weighting calculation on one or more reconstructed values of one or more reference samples and the prediction value of the target sample, to update the prediction value of the target sample, where the reference sample(s) have a preset spatial position relationship with the target sample.

    Abstract: This application provides a motion vector obtaining method and apparatus. The method includes: determining a target offset vector of a block and identifier information of a target picture, wherein the block comprises at least one sub-block; determining a location of the sub-block; determining, as a target location coordinate value of a collocated sub-block, a location coordinate value obtained by performing a clipping operation on an initial location coordinate value in a range, wherein the initial location coordinate value is based on the location of the sub-block and the target offset vector; and obtaining a motion vector of the sub-block based on a motion vector corresponding to the target location coordinate value. Thus, a range of the target offset vector is limited, so that a quantity of memory read times can be reduced in a process of obtaining the motion vector of the collocated sub-block.

    Abstract: Techniques are described of a linear model prediction mode. A set of reconstructed neighboring luma samples are determined. Two pairs of luma value and chroma value are determined according to N reconstructed neighboring luma samples, N reconstructed neighboring chroma samples, M reconstructed neighboring luma samples, and M reconstructed neighboring chroma samples. The minimum value of the N reconstructed neighboring luma samples is not less than the maximum luma value of the remaining reconstructed neighboring luma samples of the set of reconstructed neighboring luma samples. The maximum value of the M reconstructed neighboring luma samples is not larger than the minimum luma value of the remaining reconstructed neighboring luma samples of the set of reconstructed neighboring luma samples. M>1 and N>1. Linear model parameters are determined based on the two pairs of luma value and chroma value, and a predictive block is determined based on the linear model parameters.

    Abstract: A picture partitioning method and apparatus are described. The method includes determining a split mode of a current node, where the current node includes a luma block and a chroma block. The method further includes determining, based on the split mode of the current node and a size of the current node, that the chroma block of the current node is not further split. In accordance with the chroma block of the current node not being further split, the method includes splitting the luma block of the current node based on the split mode of the current node. In accordance with the chroma block of the current node not being further split, the method may be used to split only the luma block of the current node, thereby improving encoding and decoding efficiency, reducing a maximum throughput of a codec, and facilitating implementation of the codec.
