A decoder includes circuitry configured to receive a bitstream, partition a current block via a geometric partitioning mode into three portions, determine a motion vector associated with a portion of the three portions, wherein determining further includes constructing a candidate list, and decode the current block using the determined motion vector.

There are provided methods and apparatus for adaptive geometric partitioning for video encoding and decoding. An apparatus includes an encoder for encoding image data corresponding to pictures by adaptively partitioning at least portions of the pictures responsive to at least one parametric model. The at least one parametric model involves at least one of implicit and explicit formulation of at least one curve.

A mixed reality system including a head-mounted display (HMD) and a base station. Information collected by HMD sensors may be transmitted to the base via a wired or wireless connection. On the base, a rendering engine renders frames including virtual content based in part on the sensor information, and an encoder compresses the frames according to an encoding protocol before sending the frames to the HMD over the connection. Instead of using a previous frame to estimate motion vectors in the encoder, motion vectors from the HMD and the rendering engine are input to the encoder and used in compressing the frame. The motion vectors may be embedded in the data stream along with the encoded frame data and transmitted to the HMD over the connection. If a frame is not received at the HMD, the HMD may synthesize a frame from a previous frame using the motion vectors.

A model-based compression codec applies higher-level modeling to produce better predictions than can be found through conventional block-based motion estimation and compensation. Computer-vision-based feature and object detection algorithms identify regions of interest throughout the video datacube. The detected features and objects are modeled with a compact set of parameters, and similar feature/object instances are associated across frames. Associated features/objects are formed into tracks and related to specific blocks of video data to be encoded. The tracking information is used to produce model-based predictions for those blocks of data, enabling more efficient navigation of the prediction search space than is typically achievable through conventional motion estimation methods. A hybrid framework enables modeling of data at multiple fidelities and selects the appropriate level of modeling for each portion of video data. A compliant-stream version of the model-based compression codec uses the modeling information indirectly to improve compression while producing bitstreams that can be interpreted by standard decoders.

A mask is generated from a residual that is a difference between pixel values of at least two frames other than a current frame in a video sequence. The mask is then used to encode or decode a current block by inter-prediction. The mask forms an edge of an object within its bounds and can be used to combine different portions of a reference frame into a single block. This can increase coding efficiency.

The present disclosure relates to encoding a decoding video employing texture coding. In particular, a texture region is identified within a video picture and a texture patch is determined for said region. Moreover, a set of parameters specifies luminance within the texture region (1001) by fitting the texture region samples to a two-dimensional polynomial function of the patch determined according to the set of parameters (1040); and/or motion within the texture region by fitting motion estimated between the texture region of the video picture and an adjacent picture to a two-dimensional polynomial The texture patch and the first set of parameters are then included into a bitstream which is output of the encoder and provided in this way to the decoder which reconstructs the texture based on the patch and the function applied to the patch.
