Abstract
A method of encoding or decoding video data includes selecting a group of blocks based on probing samples determined from pixels that are proximate to the blocks in the group of blocks and current probing samples determined from pixels that are proximate to a current block; fusing the blocks in the group of blocks to generate a prediction signal; and encoding or decoding the current block based on the prediction signal.
Claims18
A method of encoding or decoding video data, the method comprising:
- selecting a group of blocks based on probing samples determined from pixels that are proximate to the blocks in the group of blocks and current probing samples determined from pixels that are proximate to a current block, wherein selecting the group of blocks comprises:
- determining first reference probing samples for respective blocks in a first group of blocks;
- fusing the first reference probing samples to generate first fused probing samples;
- determining second reference probing samples for respective blocks in a second group of blocks;
- fusing the second reference probing samples to generate second fused probing samples;
- comparing the current probing samples to the first fused probing samples to generate a first comparison value;
- comparing the current probing samples to the second fused probing samples to generate a second comparison value;
- and
- selecting the group of blocks based on at least the first comparison value and the second comparison value;
- fusing the blocks in the group of blocks to generate a prediction signal;
- and
- encoding or decoding the current block based on the prediction signal.
