METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR LOW-COMPLEXITY BI-DIRECTIONAL INTRA PREDICTION IN VIDEO ENCODING AND DECODING

摘要

A method for video decoding is disclosed. A directional intra prediction mode is decoded for a block of a picture, the directional intra prediction mode having a direction. Based on the directional intra prediction mode, a first predictor and a second predictor for a sample in the current block are accessed, the first and second predictors being on a line at least approximating the direction. A sample value of the sample is predicted by interpolation using the first and second predictors, responsive to a difference between the second and first predictors, wherein the difference is scaled by at least a ratio that is based on a location of the sample in the block, and wherein a denominator of the ratio is a power of two regardless of the location of the sample. The sample of the block is reconstructed based on the predicted sample value.
