Abstract
Methods and apparatus of for video coding using sub-block based affine mode are disclosed. In one method, if affine fallback is used or the control-point motion vectors are the same, the sub-block based affine mode is disabled in order to reduce computational complexity. According to another method for video coding using a coding tool belonging to a coding tool group comprising Prediction Refinement with Optical Flow (PROF) and Bi-Directional Optical Flow (BDOF), predictor refinement is derived for pixels of a target subblock of the current block, where a step to derive the predictor refinement comprises to derive gradients for the pixels of the target subblock of the current block and to right-shift the first gradients by a common shift.
