Abstract

A method of processing a first image in a first plurality of images, wherein the first image is divided into a plurality of pixel blocks, is proposed, which comprises, for a current block of the first image: selecting, in a set of a plurality of predefined interpolation filters, an interpolation filter based on a prediction of an interpolation filter determined by a supervised learning algorithm to which data related to the current block is input; and using the selected interpolation filter for calculating fractional pixel values in a second image of the plurality of images for a temporal prediction of pixels of the current block based on a reference block correlated to the current block in the second image, wherein the second image is distinct from the first image and was previously encoded according to an image encoding sequence for encoding the images of the plurality of images.
