Patent number: 11979600Abstract: Innovations in encoder-side search ranges having horizontal bias or vertical bias are described herein. For example, a video encoder determines a block vector (“BV”) for a current block of a picture, performs intra prediction for the current block using the BV, and encodes the BV. The BV indicates a displacement to a region within the picture. When determining the BV, the encoder checks a constraint that the region is within a BV search range having a horizontal bias or vertical bias. The encoder can select the BV search range from among multiple available BV search ranges, e.g., depending at least in part on BV values of one or more previous blocks, which can be tracked in a histogram data structure.Type: GrantFiled: January 23, 2023Date of Patent: May 7, 2024Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Lihua Zhu, Yongjun Wu, Gary J. Sullivan
