Abstract
A method for encoding a block is disclosed. To this aim, a split mode is determined based on a rate-distortion optimization using a texture-based split prediction set obtained for the block. As an example, the split mode is determined by adapting the texture-based split prediction set according to at least one of a binary or triple split mode non-redundancy constraint or a heuristic-based split mode set pruning. The block is finally encoded using the determined split mode.
