We optimize the implemention codes of three representative GFVC works, i.e., FOMM, CFTE and FV2V, and further provide the unified codes regarding the encoder and decoder processes. Current extensions to the original code include DAC and HDAC

• Download the CFTE-checkpoint.pth.tar, FOMM-checkpoint.pth.tar, and FV2V-checkpoint.pth.tar to the path ./GFVC/CFTE/checkpoint/, ./GFVC/FOMM/checkpoint/, and ./GFVC/FV2V/checkpoint/ respectively. The checkpoints for FOMM, CFTE and FV2V are available at this link while DAC and HDAC are available here.

• The overall testing dataset is available at this link.

• Download HEVC and VVC and place both codecs in source/anchors/ directory.

• The specific details can be seen in the subfolder source.
