Abstract
A method and apparatus for predictive coding. According to the method, combined prediction members are determined, where each of the combined prediction member includes a weighted sum of a first prediction candidate and a second prediction candidate using a target weighting selected from a weighting set. Boundary matching costs associated with the combined prediction members are determined, where each of the boundary matching costs is determined, for the combined prediction member with the target weighting, by using predicted samples of the current block based on the combined prediction member with the target weighting and neighbouring reconstructed samples of the current block. The current block is then encoded or decoded using a final combined prediction decided based on at least one of the boundary matching costs.
