Abstract

A method and apparatus for video coding are disclosed. According to the method, input data associated with a current block is received, wherein the input data comprises pixel data to be encoded at an encoder side or data associated with the current block to be decoded at a decoder side, wherein the current block is coded in a non-intra mode. A LIC (local illumination compensation) prediction model is used, wherein the LIC prediction model comprises a gamma term associated with the input signal, and a gamma value of the gamma term is not equal to 1. The current block is encoded or decoded using coding information comprising the LIC prediction model, wherein when the LIC prediction model is selected for the current block, a predictor of the current block is generated by applying the LIC prediction model to a reference block.
