Abstract
Methods and apparatus for encoding or decoding a first structure within a picture in a video sequence are provided. The method comprises, for a second structure within the first structure, determining an initial motion vector, MV, and MV candidates. The method comprises, for each of the MV candidates, using the MV candidate to derive first and second reference blocks, and a size of the first and second reference blocks may not be equal to a size of the second structure. The method comprises deriving a cost value based on samples from the first and second reference blocks. The method comprises using the cost values from the MV candidates to derive a best MV candidate and using the best MV candidate to derive prediction samples for the second structure.
