ENCODING METHOD AND APPARATUS THEREFOR, AND DECODING METHOD AND APPARATUS THEREFOR - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18493402 titled 'ENCODING METHOD AND APPARATUS THEREFOR, AND DECODING METHOD AND APPARATUS THEREFOR
Simplified Explanation
The video decoding method described in the patent application involves the following steps:
- Determining the inter prediction mode of a current block when it is inter-predicted.
- Identifying at least one reference sample location to be used by the current block, based on its inter prediction mode.
- Determining filter information to be applied to at least one reconstructed reference sample corresponding to the reference sample location, based on the inter prediction mode of the current block.
- Performing filtering on the reconstructed reference sample using the filter information.
- Decoding the current block by utilizing prediction samples generated through the filtering process.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Video streaming services
- Video conferencing systems
- Video surveillance systems
- Virtual reality applications
Problems solved by this technology:
- Improved video quality in inter-predicted blocks
- Reduction of artifacts in decoded video
- Enhanced compression efficiency
Benefits of this technology:
- Higher quality video decoding
- More efficient use of bandwidth
- Enhanced user experience in video playback
Original Abstract Submitted
Provided is a video decoding method including: determining an inter prediction mode of a current block when the current block is inter-predicted; determining at least one reference sample location to be referred to by the current block, based on the inter prediction mode of the current block; determining filter information to be applied to at least one reconstructed reference sample corresponding to the at least one reference sample location, based on the inter prediction mode of the current block; performing filtering on the at least one reconstructed reference sample, based on the filter information; and decoding the current block by using prediction samples generated via the filtering.
