US Patent 12088836 Affine linear weighted intra prediction mode

A method for video decoding in a decoder is provided. Prediction information for a current block in a current picture is decoded. The prediction information indicates whether the current block is coded in MIP. Based on the prediction information indicating that the current block is coded in MIP, an MIP mode index is determined according to index information included in the prediction information. An intra prediction candidate mode for the current block is determined to be a Planar intra prediction mode based on the prediction information indicating that the current block is not coded in MIP. The current block is reconstructed according to (i) an MIP mode in a mode candidate list based on the prediction information indicating that the current block is coded in MIP and (ii) the Planar intra prediction mode based on the prediction information indicating that the current block is not coded in MIP.
