Inventors include Choi, Jungah; Heo, Jin; and Park, Seung Wook.
The application for the patent was published on October 23, 2026, under issue no. 43/2026.
Abstract: The present disclosure provides an image decoding method comprising the steps of: determining a prediction sample of a current block by using a first reference block derived from a first reference picture and a second reference block derived from a second reference picture; determining that a correction according to a bidirectional optical flow is applied to the current block on the basis of a temporal distance difference between the first reference picture and a current picture and a temporal distance difference between the second reference picture and the current picture; determining a bidirectional optical flow offset in response to application of the correction according to the bidirectional optical flow; and correcting the prediction sample of the current block on the basis of the bidirectional optical flow offset.
