US Patent Issued to KDDI on Nov. 18 for "Image decoding device, image decoding method, and program" (Japanese Inventor)

ALEXANDRIA, Va., Nov. 18 -- United States Patent no. 12,477,148, issued on Nov. 18, was assigned to KDDI Corp. (Tokyo).

"Image decoding device, image decoding method, and program" was invented by Yoshitaka Kidani (Fujimino, Japan).

According to the abstract* released by the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office: "An image decoding device includes a circuit which executes a first process that derives motion information for a geometric partitioning mode to generate a motion compensation sample, and a second process that derives an intra prediction mode for the geometric partitioning mode to generate an intra predicted sample. The first process determines that the motion information can be derived based on bi-prediction from an application area to ...
