Abstract
A method of performing bi-directional optical flow, BDOF, processing for a video sequence of images, with each image including a plurality of blocks with bidirectional-predicted inter coding blocks, BPICBs. The method includes obtaining a shifted pair of refinement parameters per a subblock of a bidirectional-predicted inter coding block, wherein the shifted pair of refinement parameters includes a shifted first refinement parameter and a shifted second refinement parameter. The method includes determining a BDOF offset without performing any right shifting using at least the shifted pair of refinement parameters by, for each sample in each subblock within each bidirectional-predicted inter coding block, determining the BDOF offset using the shifted first refinement parameter, the shifted second refinement parameter, a first horizontal gradient block and a first vertical gradient block for a first prediction block, and a second horizontal gradient block and a second vertical gradient block for a second prediction block.
