Abstract
A method and a device for encoding or decoding video data. It concerns more particularly the encoding according to a particular encoding mode using a decoder side motion vector derivation mode referenced as frame-rate up conversion mode or FRUC mode. In FRUC merge mode, the derivation process comprises a refinement step to increase the accuracy of the obtained motion vector at the sub-pixel level. This process involves the evaluation of different sub-pixel position around the obtained motion vector according to different patterns. The present invention has been devised to improve the known refinement step. It aims at improving the coding efficiency by considering the characteristics of the matching type and/or the signal inside the templates.
