Abstract

Disclosed is an inter prediction method which includes deriving control points (CPs) for the current block, wherein the CPs include a first CP and a second CP, deriving a first motion vector predictor (MVP) for the first CP and a second MVP for the second CP based on neighboring blocks of the current block, decoding a first motion vector difference (MVD) for the first CP, decoding a difference of two MVDs (DMVD) for the second CP, deriving a first motion vector (MV) for the first CP based on the first MVP and the first MVD, deriving a second MV for the second CP based on the second MVP and the DMVD for the second CP, and generating a predicted block for the current block based on the first MV and the second MV.
