Abstract

Methods and apparatus are provided for uni-prediction of self-derivation of motion estimation. An apparatus includes a video encoder for encoding at least a portion of a picture. The video encoder includes a self derivation motion estimator for performing self derivation motion estimation for the portion. The self derivation motion estimation is used for selectively performing uni-prediction or bi-prediction for the portion based on one or more criterion.
