Abstract

Claims (38)

1. A method of coding implemented by a decoding device, comprising:

obtaining, by bypass, a value of a splitting mode index for a current coding block, wherein the splitting mode index is merge_gpm_partition_idx;

obtaining a value of an angle index for the current coding block according to the value of the splitting mode index and a pre-defined table;

setting a value of an index according to the value of the angle index; and

storing motion information for the current coding block according to the value of the index.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the value of the index is equal to 1 if the value of the angle index is greater than or equal to a first threshold and the value of the angle index is less than or equal to a second threshold, otherwise the value of the index is equal to 0, wherein the first and second thresholds are integer values and the first threshold is less than the second threshold.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the first threshold is 13 and the second threshold is 27.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the value of the splitting mode index is used to indicate which geometric partition mode is used for the current coding block.

a processing unit configured to:

store motion information for the current coding block according to the value of the index.

7. The video decoder of claim 6 , wherein the value of the index is equal to 1 if the value of the angle index is greater than or equal to a first threshold and the value of the angle index is less than or equal to a second threshold, otherwise the value of the index is equal to 0, wherein the first and second thresholds are integer values and the first threshold is less than the second threshold.

8. The video decoder of claim 7 , wherein the first threshold is 13 and the second threshold is 27.

9. The video decoder of claim 6 , wherein the value of the splitting mode index is used to indicate which geometric partition mode is used for the current coding block.
