MUMBAI, India, June 24 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202527097589 A) filed by Mediatek Inc. on October 09, 2025, for Method And Apparatus Of Regression-Based Blending For Improving Intra Prediction Fusion In Video Coding System.

Inventors include Lin, Yu-Cheng; Chuang, Cheng-Yen; Tsai, Chia-Ming; Hsu, Chih-Wei; Chen, Ching-Yeh; Chuang, Tzu-Der; and Chen, Yi-Wen.

The application for the patent was published on June 12, 2026, under issue no. 24/2026.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for video coding are disclosed. According to this method, a non-LM (Linear Model) predictor is generated for the current chroma block. One or more chroma predictors for the current chroma block are determined. One or more fusion weights for the non-LM predictor and said one or more chroma predictors are derived by using a regression-based process with training data comprising reconstructed samples and position-dependent information. A final chroma predictor is derived by blending the non-LM predictor and said one or more chroma predictors using said one or more fusion weights. The current chroma block is encoded or decoded by using coding information comprising the final chroma predictor.
