Signaling of global motion vector in picture header
A decoder includes circuitry configured to receive a bitstream, extract a header, determine, using the header, a global motion model, and decode a current block of a current frame using the global motion model. Related apparatus, systems, techniques and articles are also described.
1. A decoder, the decoder comprising circuitry configured to:
receive a bitstream including a coded picture, the coded picture including a first region comprising a first contiguous plurality of coding blocks having global motion and a second region comprising a second contiguous plurality of coding blocks having local motion;

determine a motion model, the motion model being global for all of the blocks in the first region and being one of translational motion, 4-parameter affine motion, or 6-parameter affine motion, the parameters of the motion model for each block in the first region being determined from at least one motion vector signaled in the bitstream; and
decode each block in the first region using the parameters of the motion model to reconstruct the global motion in the first region; and
for each block in the second region, decode each block using motion information determined individually for each block to reconstruct the local motion in the second region.
