Abstract:
1. A method for decoding a video bit stream that adaptively utilizes overlapped block motion compensation, the method comprising: determining whether a mode for a first block of the video bit stream includes a first mode and whether the mode for the first block of the video bit stream includes a second mode, the mode being determined by an explicit signal in the video bit stream, wherein a prediction type of the first block is inter-prediction; conditioned on the mode being determined to include the first mode, utilizing motion vector information of a neighboring partition for performing overlapped block motion compensation for the first block, the neighboring partition being edge adjacent to the first block and located above the first block, conditioned on the mode being determined to include the second mode, utilizing motion vector information of a different partition in the video bit stream for the first block without utilizing the motion vector information of the neighboring partition for performing the overlapped block motion compensation.
