Claim 3:
4. The video decoding apparatus of claim 1, wherein the memory stores instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to:
derive a collection of one or more primitive predictions for a plurality of blocks of the picture using the set of primitive prediction modes, wherein each primitive prediction in the collection of primitive predictions is derived using a respective primitive prediction mode from the set of primitive prediction modes;
compose a composite prediction signal for each block by combining primitive predictions from the collection of one or more primitive predictions; and
predict each block using the composite prediction signal;
wherein at least one of a cardinality of the collection of the one or more primitive prediction modes or a cardinality of the collection of one or more primitive predictions differ among the plurality of blocks.
