JVET-AD0215 Non-EE2: Extension of IBC-GPM [C. Ma, X. Xiu, W. Chen, H.-J. Jhu, C.-W. Kuo, N. Yan, X. Wang (Kwai)]
In ECM-8.0, IBC-GPM is applied which divides a CU into two geometry partitions based on a sample-wise combination of two prediction signals. In the current design, one of the IBC-GPM prediction signals is generated from the IBC prediction while the other is generated from the intra prediction. In this contribution, the existing IBC-GPM is further extended to allow the predictions of both partitions are generated using the IBC. The simulation results on top of ECM-8.0 are summarized as follows.

It was agreed to investigate this in an EE (along with JVET-AD0134 which proposes a similar approach)
