Abstract:
An example method for encoding or decoding video data includes storing, by a video coder and in a reference picture buffer, a version of a current picture of the video data, including the current picture in a reference picture list (RPL) used to predict the current picture, and coding, by the video coder and based on the RPL, a block of video data in the current picture based on a predictor block of video data included in the version of the current picture stored in the reference picture buffer.
Abstract:
An example method for decoding video data includes receiving syntax elements (SEs) for a component of a block vector that represents a displacement between a current block of video data and a predictor block of video data; decoding the SEs to determine a value of the component by at least: decoding a first SE to determine whether or not an absolute value of the component (AbsValcomp) is greater than zero; where AbsValcomp is greater than zero, decoding a second SE to determine whether AbsValcomp is greater than a threshold based on an order of a set of codes; where AbsValcomp is greater than the threshold, decoding, using the set of codes, a third SE to determine AbsValcomp minus an offset based on the order of the set of codes; and where AbsValcomp is greater than zero, decoding a fourth SE to determine a sign of the value of the component.
Abstract:
A method for motion vector difference (MVD) coding of screen content video data is disclosed. In one aspect, the method includes determining an MVD between a predicted motion vector and a current motion vector and generating a binary string comprising n bins via binarizing the MVD. The method further includes determining whether an absolute value of the MVD is greater than a threshold value and encoding a subset of the n bins via an exponential Golomb code having an order that is greater than one in response to the absolute value of the MVD being greater than the threshold value.
Abstract:
A method of encoding video data includes determining that a current block of video data is to be encoded using an intra block copy (BC) mode and constrained intra prediction, determining one or more reference blocks that may be used for encoding the current block using the intra BC mode, wherein each of the one or more reference blocks is encoded with an intra prediction mode, and encoding the current block of video data using the intra BC mode and at least one of the determined one or more reference blocks.
Abstract:
A method of decoding video data comprising receiving a first block of video data in a first frame of video data, the first block of video data being encoded relative to a first predictive block in the first frame of video data, the first predictive block being identified by a block vector, and decoding the block vector using a motion vector prediction process and a same motion vector candidate list as used for decoding a motion vector, wherein the motion vector is used to identify an inter-frame predictive block for a second block of video data coded using inter coding.
Abstract:
In general, the disclosure describes techniques related to block vector coding for Intra Block Copy and Inter modes. In one example, the disclosure is directed to a video coding device comprising a memory configured to store video data and one or more processors. The video coding device is configured to determine a reference picture used for coding the current video block and determine a picture order count (POC) value for the reference picture. In response to the POC value for the reference picture being equal to a POC value for a current picture that includes the current video block, the video coding device sets a value of a syntax element to indicate that a reference picture list includes the current picture. Otherwise, the video coding device sets the value of the syntax element to indicate that the reference picture list does not include the current picture.
Abstract:
An apparatus configured to encode video information of a picture includes a memory unit and a processor in communication with the memory unit. The memory unit is configured to store a hash table that includes at least one hash index corresponding to reference blocks in the picture, the reference blocks being a subset of available blocks in the picture. The processor is configured to map a current block to a hash index in the hash table based on the application of a hash function to the current block, identify, from the hash table, reference blocks that correspond to the hash index, select a prediction block from among the reference blocks based on a comparison of the current block to the reference blocks, and encode the video information using the selected prediction block.

Abstract:
In general, techniques are described for performing an intra block copying process to code video data. A video decoding device that includes a memory and one or more processors may perform the techniques. The memory may be configured to store a current block of a picture. The processors may be configured to perform an intra block copying process to decode the current block using a prediction block that is from a same slice or a same tile as that in which the coded current block resides, the prediction block restricted to be within a search region that only includes the same slice or the same tile as that in which the coded current block resides.
