Abstract

A decoder includes circuitry configured to receive a bitstream, extract a header associated with a current frame and including a signal characterizing that global motion is enabled and further characterizing parameters of a motion model, and decoding the current frame, the decoding including using the parameters of the motion model for each current block in the current frame. Related apparatus, systems, techniques and articles are also described.

Claims (16)

1. A decoder, the decoder comprising circuitry configured to:

receive a coded bitstream including a Sequence Parameter Set and a sequence of coded pictures, wherein the Sequence Parameter Set allows three global motion modes for a sequence of coded pictures, and wherein the three global motion modes include translational motion, 4-parameter affine motion, and 6-parameter affine motion;

detect in the Sequence Parameter Set that only translational global motion model is enabled, and that the affine global motion modes are disabled for the sequence of coded pictures;

decode one coded picture in the sequence by decoding a global motion region in the picture using translational motion, the global motion region in the picture comprising multiple 128×128 coding units; and

detect that one of the coding units is coded with a geometric mode and has an angled boundary therein.

2. The decoder of claim 1 , wherein the header includes a picture parameter set (PPS).

3. The decoder of claim 1 , wherein the header includes a sequence parameter set (SPS).

4. The decoder of claim 1 , wherein each current block is a coding tree unit.

5. A method comprising:

receiving, by a decoder, a coded bitstream including a Sequence Parameter Set and a sequence of coded pictures, wherein the Sequence Parameter Set allows three global motion modes for a sequence of coded pictures, and wherein the three global motion modes include translational motion, 4-parameter affine motion, and 6-parameter affine motion;

detecting in the Sequence Parameter Set that only translational global motion model is enabled, and that the affine global motion modes are disabled for the sequence of coded pictures;

decoding one coded picture in said sequence by decoding a global motion region in the one picture using translational motion, the global motion region in the picture comprising multiple 128×128 coding units; and

detecting that one of the coding units is coded with a geometric mode and has an angled boundary therein.

6. The method of claim 5 , wherein the header includes a picture parameter set (PPS).

7. The method of claim 5 , wherein the header includes a sequence parameter set (SPS).

8. The method of claim 5 , wherein each current block is a coding tree unit.
