The Joint Collaborative Team on Video Coding (jct-vc) of itu-t wp3/16 and iso/iec jtc 1/ sc 29/ wg 11 held its tenth meeting during 11-20 July 2012 at the City Conference Centre (ccc), a k. a

JCTVC-J0443 Cross-check report of simplification on zero merge candidate derivation (JCTVC-J0203) [T. Sugio (Panasonic)] [late]
JCTVC-J0204 Dependency removal of temporal merge candidate and combined bi-predictive merge candidate derivation [S.-C. Lim, H. Y. Kim, J. Lee, J. S. Choi (ETRI)]

This contribution presents a dependency removal between temporal merge candidate and combined bi-predictive merge candidate derivation. In order to improve the throughput of merge candidate list derivation, it is proposed to use only spatial merge candidates for combined bi-predictive merge candidate derivation process. The experimental result reportedly shows that the proposed method introduces maximum 0.2% of coding loss in HE10-LB test condition and 0.1% of coding loss on average in the other test conditions.

Comments:

• 
  The problem does not exist any more due to a change made by the last meeting (fixed reference list in spatial candidate derivation, I0116)
  

No action.
