`
`Listing of Claims:
`
`1-6.
`
`(Canceled)
`
`7.
`
`(Currently Amended) A decoder comprising:
`
`processing circuitry; and
`
`a memory coupled to the processing circuitry,
`
`wherein the processing circuitry 1s configured to:
`
`select a first filter for a first block based at least on a prediction mode used for the
`
`first block;
`
`select a secondfilter for a second block; and
`
`change values of pixels in the first block and the second block{{-]] by using the
`a
`
`first filter and the secondfilter-
`
`
` & ix such that change amounts of the respective values-de-net-exceedarewithin
`
`
`
`respective-threskatds clip widths, the pixels in the first block and the second block being
`
`arranged along a line across-tkea boundary betweenthefirstblockandthesecondblock,andthe
`clip widths are asymmetric with respect to the boundary
`
`8.
`
`(Original) The decoder according to claim 7,
`
`wherein the processing circuitry is configured to select the secondfilter for the
`
`second block based at least on a prediction mode used for the second block.
`
`9.
`
`(Canceled)
`
`10.
`
`(Currently Amended) The decoder according to-ciairs-9 claim 7,
`
`wherein at least one of the respective-theeskelds clip widths for the pixels located
`
`at respective positionsin the first block is different from a-threskeld clip width for the pixel
`
`located at a corresponding position in the second block with respect to the boundary.
`
`

`Reply to Office Action Dated August 31, 2020
`
`11.|(Currently Amended) The decoder according to-elaies-9claim7,
`
`wherein the pixels in the first block includeafirst pixel located at a first position,
`
`and the pixels in the second block include a secondpixel located at a second position
`
`correspondingto the first position with respect to the boundary,
`
`wherein the-tkresRelds clip widths include a first-threskeid clip width and a
`
`second-steskeldclipwidth correspondingto thefirst pixel and the secondpixel, respectively,
`
`and
`
`width.
`
`wherein the first-thresbeld clip width is different from the second+hresheldclip
`
`12.
`
`(Currently Amended) The decoder according to claim 11,
`
`wherein the pixels in the first block includea first additional pixel located at a
`
`first additional position and the pixels in the second block include a second additional pixel
`
`located at a second additional position which correspondsto the first additional position with
`
`respect to the boundary, and
`
`the-threshoids clip widths includeafirst additional-threskatd clip width and a
`
`second additional+hresksld clip width correspondingto the first additional pixel and the second
`
`additional pixel, respectively, and
`
`wherein the first additional+hresheid clip width is same as the second additional
`
`tarasheld clip width.
`
`13.
`
`(Currently Amended) A decoding method comprising:
`
`selecting a first filter for a first block based at least on a prediction mode used for
`
`the first block;
`
`selecting a secondfilter for a second block; and
`
`changing valuesofpixels in the first block and the second blockij-}}by using the

`
`arranged alongaline across-t#ea boundary between the first block and the second block, and the
`
`clip widths are asymmetric with respect to the boundary.
`
`14.
`
`(Original) The decoding method according to claim 13,
`
`wherein the secondfilter is selected based at least on a prediction mode used for
`
`the second block.
`
`15.
`
`(Canceled)
`
`16.
`
`(Currently Amended) The decoding method according to-elaivs-45 claim
`
`wherein at least one of the respective-threskelds clip widths for the pixels located
`
`at respective positionsin the first block is different from a-threskeld clip width for the pixel
`
`located at a corresponding position in the second block with respect to the boundary.
`
`17.
`
`(Currently Amended) The decoding method according to-ehumtSclaim
`
`wherein the pixels in the first block includeafirst pixel located at a first position,
`
`and the pixels in the second block include a secondpixel located at a second position
`
`correspondingto the first position with respect to the boundary,
`
` wherein the-thresbsids clip widths includea first-hresheld clip width and a
`
`second+hreskeld clip width correspondingto the first pixel and the second pixel, respectively,
`
`and
`
`width
`
`wherein thefirst-threshate clin width is different from the second-threskotdclip
`
`18.
`
`(Currently Amended) The decoding method according to claim 17,
`
`wherein the pixels in the first block includea first additional pixel located at a
`
`first additional position and the pixels in the second block include a second additional pixel
`
`located at a second additional position which correspondsto the first additional position with
`
`respect to the boundary, and

`second additional+hreshekt clip width correspondingto the first additional pixel and the second
`
`additional pixel, respectively, and
`
`wherein the first additional-threskeit clin width 1s same as the second additional
