Patent ID: 11297324

Abstract:
The invention relates to an apparatus and method for inter prediction of a sample value of a current full-integer pixel of a plurality of pixels of a current block of a current frame of a video signal. The apparatus comprises a processing unit configured to: determine a motion vector of the current full-integer pixel on the basis of the current frame and a reference frame of the video signal and/or on the basis of a motion compensation model; determine for the current full-integer pixel a corresponding sub-integer pixel in the reference frame on the basis of the motion vector of the current full-integer pixel; generate on the basis of a predefined set of filter support pixels in the current frame a set of corresponding filter support pixels in the reference frame, wherein the predefined set of filter support pixels in the current frame comprises one or more neighboring sub-integer pixels of the current full-integer pixel; determine a respective sample value of the corresponding sub-integer pixel of the current full-integer pixel and the corresponding filter support pixels in the reference frame; and determine the inter predicted sample value of the current pixel in the current frame by applying a spatial high-pass filter to the sample value of the corresponding sub-integer pixel of the current full-integer pixel in the reference frame and to the sample values of the corresponding filter support pixels in the reference frame. Moreover, the invention relates to an encoding apparatus and a decoding apparatus comprising such an inter prediction apparatus.
