Magnitude Coding for Selected Subset of Prediction Candidates - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18534320 titled 'Magnitude Coding for Selected Subset of Prediction Candidates
Simplified Explanation:
The patent application discusses the compression and decompression of videos using predictive encoding or decoding, specifically focusing on entropy coding or decoding magnitude symbols of a block vector difference (BVD) based on multiple BVD candidates. A subset of representative BVD candidates is selected to reduce computation complexity, with the selection criteria based on motion vector differences (MVD).

Original Abstract Submitted
A video may be compressed or decompressed using predictive encoding or decoding. The predictive encoding or decoding may involve entropy coding or decoding magnitude symbols of a block vector difference (BVD), for example, based on a plurality of BVD candidates. A subset of representative BVD candidates may be selected from the plurality of BVD candidates to reduce computation complexity (e.g., cost calculation). The subset of representative BVD candidates may be selected based on one or more subset selection criteria. The BVD may comprise a motion vector difference (MVD).
