Abstract

An encoder includes: circuitry; and memory coupled to the circuitry. The circuitry, in operation, stores a first parameter into a bitstream, the first parameter indicating, as a prediction mode, one of (i) a multiple prediction mode in which a prediction image is generated by overlapping an inter prediction image of a current block and an intra prediction image of the current block and (ii) one of a plurality of prediction modes including a non-rectangular mode in which a prediction image is generated for each non-rectangular partition in the current block, and encodes the current block according to the prediction mode.

Claims (21)

1. An encoder which encodes a video, comprising:

circuitry; and

memory coupled to the circuitry, wherein

the circuitry, in operation,

stores a first parameter into a bitstream, the first parameter indicating, as a prediction mode, one of (i) a multiple prediction mode in which a prediction image is generated by overlapping an inter prediction image of a current block and an intra prediction image of the current block and (ii) one of a plurality of prediction modes including a non-rectangular mode in which a prediction image is generated for each non-rectangular partition in the current block; and

encodes the current block according to the prediction mode, wherein

encoding the current block using the multiple prediction mode and encoding the current block using the non-rectangular mode are mutually exclusive, and

the first parameter is a flag.

2. A decoder which decodes a video, comprising:

circuitry; and

memory coupled to the circuitry, wherein

the circuitry, in operation,

parses a first parameter from a bitstream, the first parameter indicating, as a prediction mode, one of (i) a multiple prediction mode in which a prediction image is generated by overlapping an inter prediction image of a current block and an intra prediction image of the current block and (ii) one of a plurality of prediction modes including a non-rectangular mode in which a prediction image is generated for each non-rectangular partition in the current block; and

decodes the current block according to the prediction mode, wherein

decoding the current block using the multiple prediction mode and decoding the current block using the non-rectangular mode are mutually exclusive, and

the first parameter is a flag.

3. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a bitstream, the bitstream including information according to which a decoder performs a prediction mode, the information including a first parameter indicating, as a prediction mode, one of (i) a multiple prediction mode in which a prediction image is generated by overlapping an inter prediction image of a current block and an intra prediction image of the current block and (ii) one of a plurality of prediction modes including a non-rectangular mode in which a prediction image is generated for each non-rectangular partition in the current block, wherein,

in the prediction mode:

the current block is decoded according to the prediction mode, wherein

decoding the current block using the multiple prediction mode and decoding the current block using the non-rectangular mode are mutually exclusive, and

the first parameter is a flag.
