Abstract
In one implementation, when coding a block in the intra prediction mode, the block can be split into two sub-partitions by a geometrically located straight line. Each geometric partition within the CU is intra predicted using its own intra mode with its available reference sample. One sub-partition copies and uses the intra prediction mode from the parent block, and another sub-partition uses another implicit or explicit signaled intra prediction mode. After predicting geometric partition, the sample values along the split boundary are adjusted using a blending process with adaptive weights. The geometric partition based intra prediction could be applied for one angular intra prediction mode, or only for one negative-directional intra prediction mode, or only for one specific intra prediction mode (e.g., mode 34). The transform selection or other intra coding tools (i.e., intra sub-partition) can be adapted for the geometric partition based intra prediction.
