Geometric partition mode with simplified motion field storage and motion compensation in video coding

Abstract:

A video decoder can be configured to determine, for a block of video data encoded in a geometric partition mode, an angle for the block for the geometric partition mode; determine a separation line displacement relative to a center of the block for the geometric partition mode; partition the block into first and second partitions based on the angle and the separation line displacement; determine first predictive samples for the block using a motion vector for the first partition and second predictive samples for the block using a motion vector for the second partition; determine a power-of-2 number based on the angle for the block; determine weighting values based on the power-of-2 number; perform a blending operation on the first predictive samples and the second predictive samples based on the weighting values to determine a prediction block for the block.
