A decoder receives, from a bitstream, a first indication of a first bit depth for a sequence of frames, and a second indication of a second bit depth for a block in a frame of the sequence of frames, a residual block of samples of the second bit depth, and a prediction parameter. The decoder determines a first decoded block of samples of the second bit depth based on the second bit depth indicated by the second indication, the residual block of samples, and the prediction parameter. The decoder converts, based on a difference between the first bit depth and the second bit depth, the first decoded block of samples to a second decoded block of samples of the first bit depth based on the first decoded block of samples of the second bit depth and the first indication of the first bit depth for the sequence.

Adaptive block level bit-depth prediction

Encoding and/or decoding a block of a video frame may be based on previously decoded reference information in the frame. A weighted sum of the reference information may be used as a prediction of the block for encoding and/or decoding the block. The weights to be applied for determining the weighted sum may be based on weights that most accurately predict neighboring, template samples of the block.

Video compression using template-based determination of intra prediction mode

In some embodiments, a decoder may receive, from a bit stream, a residual of a block and an indication that the residual was determined based on a refined partition edge. The decoder may determine the refined partition edge based on the indication and reference samples neighboring the block. The decoder may determine based on at least one prediction mode, a prediction for two parts of the block defined by the refined partition edge. The decoder may determine a reconstruction for the block based on the residual and the prediction of the block.

Geometric partitioning refinement

A decoder may generate a reconstruction of a luma block based on a prediction of the luma block and a residual of the luma block. The decoder may generate, at one or more hidden layers, a score distribution. The decoder may generate the score distribution based on the reconstruction of the luma block and one or more coding parameters of the luma block. The decoder may generate, at an output layer and based on the score distribution, a prediction of a chroma block corresponding to the luma block. The decoder may determine a reconstruction of the chroma block based on the prediction of the chroma block and a residual of the chroma block.

Chroma prediction from luma for video coding

A decoder may determine reference signals of a chroma block. The decoder may decode a decision rule in a bitstream. The decoder may determine a chroma prediction model among one or more linear models and one or more non-linear models based on the decision rule. The decoder may generate a prediction of the chroma block based on the reference signals of the chroma block and the chroma prediction model. The decoder may determine a reconstruction of the chroma block based on the prediction of the chroma block and a decoded residual of the chroma block.

Chroma from luma prediction model selection

A decoder may receive, from a bitstream for a block, an indication of a first bit depth, a residual block of samples of the first bit depth, and a prediction parameter. The decoder may receive, from the bitstream for a sequence, an indication of a second bit depth. The decoder may determine a first decoded block of samples of the first bit depth based on the first bit depth, the residual block of samples of the first bit depth, and the prediction parameter. The decoder may determine a second decoded block of samples of the second bit depth based on the first decoded block of samples of the first bit depth.
