Method and apparatus for prediction based on cross component linear model in video coding system

Abstract

A method and apparatus for video coding system that uses intra prediction based on cross-colour linear model are disclosed. According to the method, model parameters for a first-colour predictor model are determined and the first-colour predictor model provides a predicted first-colour pixel value according to a combination of at least two corresponding reconstructed second-colour pixel values. According to another method, the first-colour predictor model provides a predicted first-colour pixel value based on a second degree model or higher of one or more corresponding reconstructed second-colour pixel values. First-colour predictors for the current first-colour block are determined according to the first-colour prediction model. The input data are then encoded at the encoder side or decoded at the decoder side using the first-colour predictors.
