Abstract
Generating a compound predictor block of a current block of video can include generating, for the current block, predictor blocks comprising a first predictor block including first predictor pixels and a second predictor block including second predictor pixels; using at least a subset of the first predictor pixels to determine a first weight for a first predictor pixel of the first predictor pixels; obtaining a second weight for a second predictor pixel of the second predictor pixels, where the second predictor pixel is co-located with the first predictor pixel; and generating the compound predictor block by combining the first predictor block and the second predictor block, where the predictor block includes a weighted pixel that is determined using a weighted sum of the first predictor pixel and the second predictor pixel using the first weight and the second weight, respectively.
