Patent №: 12244854 – Signaling of block vector resolution. Processing circuitry decodes prediction information, applies intra block copy mode, determines block vector resolution, and reconstructs the current block accordingly.

Patent №:  12244834 – Utilizing hierarchical structure for neural network based tools in video coding. A method, program, and system for video encoding and decoding generate a virtual reference frame using a picture’s hierarchical level and nearest decoded picture to aid decoding.

Patent №:  12243279 – Method and apparatus for adaptive quantization for symmetry mesh. A method for 3D mesh encoding detects symmetry to estimate a partition plane, divides the mesh into symmetric sides, and quantizes vertex pairs to minimize errors.

Patent №:  12243277 – Method and apparatus to symmetrize a mesh cross-reference to related application. A mesh encoding method partitions the mesh, checks if a vertex’s perpendicular line intersects multiple surfaces, selects the closest intersected vertex as its counterpart, and generates a new connection.
