Abstract: This disclosure relates generally to video coding and particularly to methods and systems for boundary padding for motion compensation. For example, a motion vector for a motion compensation padded block in a motion compensation padding area of a picture in a video may be determined from scanning a set of neighboring boundary blocks of the picture and/or a set of co-located temporal blocks of the boundary blocks. The motion compensation padded block may be padded according to the motion vector and used for motion compensation of other pictures in the video.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to secondary transform of video blocks with adaptive kernel options. For example, a method for decoding a video block in a video stream is disclosed. The method may include comprising parsing and processing the video stream to generate: a set of secondary transform coefficients associated with the video block; an intra prediction mode associated with the video block; and a kernel index indicating a secondary transform kernel among a group of secondary transform kernels. The method may further include identifying the group of secondary transform kernels based on the intra prediction mode; and performing an inverse secondary transform of the set of secondary transform coefficients to generate primary transform coefficients of the video block based on the secondary transform kernel among the group of secondary transform kernels identified by the kernel index. The quantity of kernels in the group of secondary transform kernels depends on at least one of: the intra prediction mode associated with the video block; a size of the video block; or a primary transform type associated with the video block.

Abstract: Coded information of a current block and a plurality of reference lines of the current block is received. A first offset value is determined in a first mapping table and associated with a first reference line of the plurality of reference lines that is adjacent to the current block. A second offset value is determined in a second mapping table and associated with a second reference line of the plurality of reference lines that is adjacent to the first reference line. A first reference sample for a sample of the current block is determined from the first reference line based on the first offset value. A second reference sample for the sample of the current block is determined from the second reference line based on the second offset value. The sample of the current block is reconstructed based on one of the first reference sample and the second reference sample.

Abstract: A method of video decoding includes receiving a coded video bitstream comprising coded information of a current block in a current picture. The coded information is indicative of a bi-directional prediction with a refinement. The refinement determines an offset based on a plurality of calculations, and each calculation includes reference samples of a first reference picture and a second reference picture for the current picture. The method further includes determining that a first calculation in the plurality of calculations uses a first reference sample that is an out of boundary (OOB) prediction sample. An OOB prediction sample of a reference picture is out of a frame boundary of the reference picture. The method also includes performing the refinement that determines the offset based on the plurality of calculations with at least the first reference sample being excluded, and reconstructing the current block according to the bi-directional prediction with the offset.

Abstract: An example method of video decoding includes receiving a video bitstream that comprises a plurality of blocks including a current chroma block. When less than a threshold number of neighboring chroma blocks of a current chroma block use a chroma-from-luma (CfL) mode, a first context is selected as an entropy decoding context for a first flag. When at least the threshold number of neighboring chroma blocks use the CfL mode, a second context is selected as the entropy decoding context for the first flag. The method also includes entropy decoding the first flag from the video bitstream using the entropy decoding context, where the first flag indicates whether the CfL mode is enabled for the current chroma block, and decoding the current chroma block according to a value of the first flag.

Abstract: The various implementations described herein include methods and systems for coding video. In one aspect, a video bitstream includes a current coding block of an image frame and a syntax element for a cross-component intra prediction mode.

The method includes extracting at least one of weighing factors from the video bitstream, and deriving the at least another weighing factor. The method further includes combining the first luma sample and the neighboring luma samples based on the at least one weighing factor that is signaled in the video bitstream and the at least another weighing factor that is not signaled in the video bitstream to generate the first chroma sample, which is applied to reconstruct the current coding block.
