Abstract
A method of partitioning in video coding for JVET, comprising representing a JVET coding tree unit as a root node in a quadtree plus binary tree (QTBT) structure that can have quadtree, ternary, or binary partitioning of the root node and quadtree, ternary, or binary trees branching from each of the leaf nodes. The partitioning at any depth can use asymmetric binary partitioning to split a child node represented by a leaf node into two or three child nodes of unequal size, representing the child nodes as leaf nodes in a binary tree branching from the parent leaf node and coding the child nodes represented by final leaf nodes of the binary tree with JVET, wherein further partitioning of child nodes split from leaf nodes via asymmetric binary partitioning may be restricted depending on the partitioning type of the parent node.
