  • Patent number: 11968367
    Abstract: A video processing method is described. The method includes performing a conversion between a video region of a video and a coded representation of the video. The performing of the conversion includes configuring, based on a partition type of the video region, a context model for coding a first bin. The first bin and a second bin are included in a bin string corresponding to an index of a secondary transform tool. The index indicates an applicability of the secondary transform tool and/or a kernel information of the secondary transform tool. The secondary transform tool includes applying, during encoding, a forward secondary transform to an output of a forward primary transform applied to a residual of a video block prior to quantization, or applying, during decoding, an inverse secondary transform to an output of dequantization to the video block before applying an inverse primary transform.
