ENCODER, A DECODER AND CORRESPONDING METHODS FOR MERGE MODE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240137499 titled 'ENCODER, A DECODER AND CORRESPONDING METHODS FOR MERGE MODE
Simplified Explanation
The present disclosure describes a method for processing a block based on a merge candidate list, including constructing a list using motion information of neighboring blocks, obtaining prediction information of the current block, and using a uni-prediction candidate for inter prediction when sub-block prediction is applied.

Original Abstract Submitted
the present disclosure provides methods and devices of processing a block according to a merge candidate list, the method comprising: constructing a first list according to motion information of neighboring blocks of a current block; obtaining prediction information of the current block; when the prediction information of the current block indicates that a sub-block prediction is applied to the current block, obtaining a uni-prediction candidate for the current block according to the first list; using, the uni-prediction candidate for the current block to perform inter prediction of the current block. according to embodiment of the present disclosure, the regular merge list can be directly used and there is no need to explicitly generate the uni-prediction merge candidate list for sub-block prediction.
