Abstract
A video decoding apparatus, a video encoding apparatus, and an apparatus for transmitting a bitstream containing encoded video data are disclosed. The apparatuses are configured to: determine first and second reference pictures and first and second motion vectors for bi-prediction by decoding a bitstream; generate a first reference block from the first reference picture referenced by the first motion vector and generate a second reference block from the second reference picture referenced by the second motion vector; generate a prediction block of the target block using the first and second reference blocks; generate a residual block based on the prediction block of the target block; and encode the residual block. The apparatuses are configured to generate the prediction block of the target block by performing a bi-directional optical flow process using the first and second reference blocks.
