COMPLEXITY CONSTRAINTS ON MERGE CANDIDATES LIST CONSTRUCTION

摘要

A method of performing merge candidate list construction for video coding using at least one processor includes determining a plurality of potential merge candidates; selecting a first potential merge candidate from among the plurality of potential merge candidates; performing a redundancy check by checking the potential merge candidate against a merge candidate included in the merge candidate list; based on a result of the redundancy check, determining whether to insert the potential merge candidate into the merge candidate list; determining whether a redundancy check threshold is exceeded, wherein the redundancy check threshold relates to at least one from among a number of redundancy checks which have been performed, and a number of potential merge candidates which have been checked by the redundancy checks; and based on the redundancy check threshold being exceeded, determining not to perform additional redundancy checks during the merge candidate list construction.
