Abstract: This application provides a motion vector obtaining method and apparatus. The method includes: determining a target offset vector of a block and identifier information of a target picture, wherein the block comprises at least one sub-block; determining a location of the sub-block; determining, as a target location coordinate value of a collocated sub-block, a location coordinate value obtained by performing a clipping operation on an initial location coordinate value in a range, wherein the initial location coordinate value is based on the location of the sub-block and the target offset vector; and obtaining a motion vector of the sub-block based on a motion vector corresponding to the target location coordinate value. Thus, a range of the target offset vector is limited, so that a quantity of memory read times can be reduced in a process of obtaining the motion vector of the collocated sub-block.

Abstract: This application provides a video picture prediction method and apparatus, to resolve a problem in a conventional technology that a length of a coded video sequence is increased. The first type of identifier may be added to a bitstream. The first type of identifier is used to indicate whether an affine motion model-based inter prediction mode is enabled for a video picture. For a video picture or a picture block included in the slice for which the affine motion model does not need to be used, a parameter, related to the affine motion model, of the picture block may not need to be transmitted. On a decoder side, during decoding of the picture block, the parameter related to the affine motion model does not need to be parsed. This can reduce load of a decoder, increase a processing speed, and decrease a processing time.

Abstract: Techniques are described of a linear model prediction mode. A set of reconstructed neighboring luma samples are determined. Two pairs of luma value and chroma value are determined according to N reconstructed neighboring luma samples, N reconstructed neighboring chroma samples, M reconstructed neighboring luma samples, and M reconstructed neighboring chroma samples. The minimum value of the N reconstructed neighboring luma samples is not less than the maximum luma value of the remaining reconstructed neighboring luma samples of the set of reconstructed neighboring luma samples. The maximum value of the M reconstructed neighboring luma samples is not larger than the minimum luma value of the remaining reconstructed neighboring luma samples of the set of reconstructed neighboring luma samples. M>1 and N>1. Linear model parameters are determined based on the two pairs of luma value and chroma value, and a predictive block is determined based on the linear model parameters.

Abstract: A picture partitioning method and apparatus are described. The method includes determining a split mode of a current node, where the current node includes a luma block and a chroma block. The method further includes determining, based on the split mode of the current node and a size of the current node, that the chroma block of the current node is not further split. In accordance with the chroma block of the current node not being further split, the method includes splitting the luma block of the current node based on the split mode of the current node. In accordance with the chroma block of the current node not being further split, the method may be used to split only the luma block of the current node, thereby improving encoding and decoding efficiency, reducing a maximum throughput of a codec, and facilitating implementation of the codec.
