Block-based quantized residual domain pulse code modulation assignment for intra prediction mode derivation

Abstract:

Techniques are described for improving video coding. For example, a first block of a picture included in an encoded video bitstream can be obtained. A second block of the picture can be determined as being coded (e.g., encoded) using a type of block-based quantized residual domain pulse code modulation (BDPCM) mode, such as vertical BDPCM mode or horizontal BDPCM mode. In the event the second block is coded using the vertical BDPCM mode, a vertical intra-prediction mode can be determined for an intra-prediction mode list for the first block. The vertical intra-prediction mode can be added to the intra-prediction mode list for the first block. In the event the second block is coded using the horizontal BDPCM mode, a horizontal intra-prediction mode can be determined for the intra-prediction mode list for the first block and the horizontal intra-prediction mode can be added to the intra-prediction mode list.
