VIDEO SIGNAL ENCODING/DECODING METHOD AND DEVICE THEREFOR - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18511460 titled 'VIDEO SIGNAL ENCODING/DECODING METHOD AND DEVICE THEREFOR

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a method for video decoding that involves determining whether to divide a block into sub-blocks, selecting an intra prediction mode for the block, and performing intra prediction for each sub-block based on the selected mode.

  • The method involves deciding whether to split a block into smaller parts.
  • It includes choosing a prediction mode for the block.
  • The method then executes prediction for each sub-block based on the selected mode.

Key Features and Innovation
