SIMPLIFICATIONS OF CODING MODES BASED ON NEIGHBORING SAMPLES DEPENDENT PARAMETRIC MODELS
Aspects aim at improving and simplifying the design of modes similar to CCLM or LIC, that are based on neighboring samples dependent parametric models. Proposed modifications relate to ways of deriving the parameters of the parametric model and designing the parametric-model-based prediction tools contained in a codec in a unified and simplified way. In one embodiment, an approach proposes a simplification of the Cross-component linear model process for deriving the linear parameters. It is proposed to replace the Least Mean Squared method to derive parameters instead as parameters of a straight line passing through two points corresponding to the minimum and maximum luma values among all the luma neighboring reconstructed samples.
