Abstract
A method of processing an image divided into a plurality of pixel blocks which are processed according to a processing sequence is provided, which comprises, for a current pixel block: determining an application area comprising a set of pixels in blocks preceding the current block in the processing sequence; performing a gradient analysis on at least one pixel of the application area; selecting at least two intra prediction video coding modes among a plurality of intra prediction video coding modes usable for processing the current pixel block, wherein at least one of the selected intra prediction video coding modes is selected based on the gradient analysis; determining a plurality of predictors of the current pixel block based on the at least two selected intra prediction video coding modes; and generating a predictor of the current pixel block based on the determined plurality of predictors.
