Patent №: 12088820 (September 10, 2024) – Decoder and corresponding methods to signal picture partitioning information for slices. A decoding method involves obtaining a bitstream, determining tile count, and calculating the slice address and horizontal coordinate. It then parses the slice width if the difference between the tile count and coordinate doesn’t meet a threshold.

Patent №: 12088799 (September 10, 2024) – Encoder, a decoder and corresponding methods of intra prediction. A decoding method sets the candidate intra prediction mode of a current block to a default value, using an adjacent block with MIP to help derive it. The final prediction mode is then determined from this default value.
