US Patent 11943467 Affine motion estimation for affine model-based video coding

Systems, methods, and instrumentalities for affine motion estimation for affine model-based video coding may be disclosed herein. A first motion vector (MV) set including one or more MVs may be derived for a first coding block. The MVs may be control point MVs (CPMVs) and the MVs may be derived by performing affine motion estimation (ME) associated with the first coding block. The first MV set may be added to a recently-estimated MV list. A head of the recently-estimated MV list may be set to the first MV set. The recently-estimated MV list may be empty or may contain one or more previously-added MV sets.
