Abstract

Systems and methods for performing motion vector prediction for video coding are disclosed. A motion vector predictor is determined based at least in part on motion information associated with a selected motion vector predictor origin and offset values corresponding to a selected sampling point. The sampling point is specified according to a set of direction and distance on a sampling map for the motion vector predictor origin.

Claims (23)

1. A method of deriving motion information for a coding block, the method comprising:

deriving a candidate set for a merge mode, wherein the candidate set includes a first motion vector predictor at a first position and a second motion vector predictor at a second position,

deriving a motion vector to be added in the candidate set by using a vector that is a sum of a motion vector of the first motion vector predictor at the first position and a motion vector of the second motion vector predictor at the second position,

receiving an index syntax element indicating which motion vector predictor in the candidate set is used for deriving the motion information,

deriving an offset value by using an indicated direction and an indicated distance, and

modifying the motion information by using the offset value, wherein

the first motion vector predictor at the first position and the second motion vector predictor at the second position are motion vector predictors of spatial neighboring blocks neighboring to a current block.

2. A device of deriving motion information for a coding block, the device comprising:

a processor, and

a memory associated with the processor; wherein the processor is configured to perform the following steps:

deriving a candidate set for a merge mode, wherein the candidate set includes a first motion vector predictor at a first position and a second motion vector predictor at a second position,

deriving a motion vector to be added in the candidate set by using a vector that is a sum of a motion vector of the first motion vector predictor at the first position and a motion vector of the second motion vector predictor at the second position,

receiving an index syntax element indicating which motion vector predictor in the candidate set is used for deriving the motion information,

deriving an offset value by using an indicated direction and an indicated distance, and

modifying the motion information by using the offset value, wherein

the first motion vector predictor at the first position and the second motion vector predictor at the second position are motion vector predictors of spatial neighboring blocks neighboring to a current block.

3. A decoder of deriving motion information for a coding block, the decoder comprising:

inter prediction processing circuitry configured to derive a candidate set for a merge mode, wherein the candidate set includes a first motion vector predictor at a first position and a second motion vector predictor at a second position, and

receiving circuitry configured to receive an index syntax element indicating which motion vector predictor in the candidate set is used for deriving the motion information, wherein

the inter prediction processing circuitry derives a motion vector to be added in the candidate set by using a vector that is a sum of a motion vector of the first motion vector predictor at the first position and a motion vector of the second motion vector predictor at the second position,

the first motion vector predictor at the first position and the second motion vector predictor at the second position are motion vector predictors of spatial neighboring blocks neighboring to a current block,

the inter prediction processing circuitry derives an offset value by using an indicated direction and an indicated distance, and

the inter prediction processing circuitry modifies the motion information by using the offset value.
