METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PROCESSING VIDEO SIGNAL BASED ON INTER PREDICTION - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18403388 titled 'METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PROCESSING VIDEO SIGNAL BASED ON INTER PREDICTION
Simplified Explanation
The disclosure describes a method for processing a video signal using inter prediction, including constructing merge candidate lists, obtaining a merge index, and generating a prediction block based on motion information.
- Constructing merge candidate lists: The method involves creating a first merge candidate list for a current block by combining spatial and temporal merge candidates, and then adding a history-based merge candidate indicating motion information from a previously coded block to the list.
- Obtaining a merge index: The method further includes determining a merge index from the second merge candidate list, which indicates the merge candidate applied to the current block.
- Generating a prediction block: Finally, the method uses the motion information of the merge candidate indicated by the merge index to generate a prediction block for the current block.
Potential Applications of this Technology
- Video encoding and decoding systems - Video streaming services - Video surveillance systems
Problems Solved by this Technology

Original Abstract Submitted
The disclosure discloses a method for processing a video signal and an apparatus therefor. Specifically, a method of processing a video signal based on inter prediction includes constructing a first merge candidate list of a current block using a spatial merge candidate and temporal merge candidate of the current block, constructing a second merge candidate list by adding a history-based merge candidate indicating motion information of a block coded prior to the current block to the first merge candidate list, obtaining a merge index indicating a merge candidate applied to the current block within the second merge candidate list, and generating a prediction block of the current block using motion information of a merge candidate indicated by the merge index. The history-based merge candidate may be added to the first merge candidate list if the history-based merge candidate has motion information not overlapping motion information of a pre-defined merge candidate among merge candidates included in the first merge candidate list.
