Intra prediction modes

摘要

New intra angular prediction modes and methods for decoding are offered for providing greater accuracy when processing predictions of digital video data blocks. One new method considers predicting a current prediction sample by taking the linear interpolation of two previously reconstructed reference samples that lay along a common angular line. Another new method offers a method for making previously unavailable samples from a neighboring block available as reference samples when predicting a current prediction sample. Another new method considers a new combined intra prediction mode that utilizes a local mean to predict a current prediction sample. And a new decoding method offers to rearrange the order in which video data blocks are predicted based on the intra prediction mode used for predicting the video data blocks.

1. A method for processing a video signal using intra prediction, the method comprising:
receiving the video signal, the video signal including a current prediction unit and intra prediction mode information corresponding to the current prediction unit; obtaining the intra prediction mode information from the video signal; when an angular line represented by the intra prediction mode information passes through a point between reference samples of a first neighboring block of the current prediction unit and a reference sample of a second neighboring block of the current prediction unit, the first neighboring block being different from the second neighboring block: estimating a virtual reference sample corresponding to the point using a first linear interpolation between the reference samples of the first neighboring block; and predicting a current sample of the current prediction unit using a second linear interpolation between the estimated virtual reference sample of the first neighboring block and the reference sample of the second neighboring block, wherein the virtual reference sample of the first neighboring block and the reference sample of the second neighboring block are located on the angular line represented by the intra prediction mode information, and wherein the first neighboring block including the virtual reference sample corresponds to a top neighboring block of the current prediction unit and the second neighboring block corresponds to a left neighboring block of the current prediction unit, or the first neighboring block including the virtual reference sample corresponds to a left neighboring block of the current prediction unit and the second neighboring block corresponds to a top neighboring block of the current prediction unit.
