JVET-AM0150 Non-EE2: Extension of reconstructed area types for EIP [W. Niu, S. Xie, M. Jia, Y. Bai, C. Huang (ZTE)]

This contribution proposes an extension method of reconstructed area types for EIP mode. The number of reconstructed area types is extended from three to six, each with distinct shapes. The proposed method was implemented on top of ECM-17.0 software. The simulation results are summarized as follows,

AI: -0.02%/-0.06%/0.01% Y/U/V, 101.9%/99.7% EncT/DecT,

The tradeoff of almost 2% encoding time increase vs. 0.02% compression is far from being attractive.
