Abstract:
Aspects of the disclosure provide method and apparatus for video encoding/decoding. In some examples, an apparatus for video decoding includes receiving circuitry and processing circuitry. The processing circuitry decodes prediction information for a block in a current picture that is a part of a coded video bitstream. The prediction information is indicative of an inter prediction mode. In response to the inter prediction mode, the processing circuitry constructs a candidate list of candidate motion vector predictors in a ranking order that are sorted based on statistics of motion information in a spatial neighboring region of the block. The processing circuitry then determines, a motion vector predictor from the candidate list following the ranking order, and reconstructs samples of the block according to motion information associated with the determined motion vector predictor.

Claim (Index 15):
An apparatus for video decoding, comprising:\n processing circuitry configured to:\n decode prediction information for a current block in a current picture from a coded video bitstream, the prediction information being indicative of an inter prediction mode; \n scan a line of blocks in a spatial neighboring region of the current block to collect statistics of motion information in the spatial neighboring region, the line of blocks including adjacent blocks to the current block and at least one non-adjacent block to the current block; \n construct, in response to the inter prediction mode and if the current block satisfies at least one of a width requirement and a height requirement, a candidate list of candidate motion vector predictors in a ranking order that are sorted based on the statistics of the motion information in the spatial neighboring region of the current block; \n determine a motion vector predictor from the candidate list following the ranking order; and \n reconstruct at least a sample of the current block according to motion information associated with the determined motion vector predictor.
