Method and apparatus for video coding

Abstract

A method and apparatus of block partitioning using an extended split set are disclosed. According to this method, an extended split set is determined, wherein the extended split set comprises one or more of a) non-QT (Quadtree), non-BT (Binary Tree), and non-TT (Ternary Tree), b) non-emulated split by symmetric BT and TT, and c) at least one asymmetric split. Whether one or more conditions are satisfied is determined. In response to said one or more conditions being satisfied: the current block is partitioned into one or more leaf subblocks using the extended split set; and said one or more leaf subblocks are encoded or decoded.
