Method and apparatus for encoding video, and method and apparatus for decoding video
Disclosed are a video encoding method and apparatus and a video decoding method and apparatus. The method of encoding video includes: producing a first predicted coding unit of a current coding unit, which is to be encoded; determining whether the current coding unit comprises a portion located outside a boundary of a current picture; and producing a second predicted coding unit is produced by changing a value of pixels of the first predicted coding unit by using the pixels of the first predicted coding unit and neighboring pixels of the pixels when the current coding unit does not include a portion located outside a boundary of the current picture. Accordingly, a residual block that is the difference between the current encoding unit and the second predicted encoding unit, can be encoded, thereby improving video prediction efficiency.
1. A method of decoding video, the method comprising:
extracting information regarding a prediction mode for a current decoding unit, which is to be decoded, from a received bitstream;
producing a first predicted decoding unit of the current decoding unit, based on the extracted information;
determining whether the current decoding unit includes a portion located outside a boundary of a current picture; and
producing a second predicted decoding unit by changing values of pixels of the first predicted decoding unit by using pixels of the first predicted decoding unit and neighboring pixels of the pixels when the current decoding unit does not include the portion located outside the boundary of the current picture, and skipping the producing the second predicted decoding unit when the current decoding unit includes the portion located outside the boundary of the current picture.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the determining whether the current decoding unit includes the portion located outside the boundary of the current picture comprises obtaining index information indicating whether the producing the second predicted decoding unit is to be performed.
3. The method of claim 2 , wherein:
if the index information has a first predetermined value, the index information indicates that the producing the second predicted decoding unit is not to be performed; and
if the index information has a second predetermined value, the index information indicates that the producing the second predicted decoding unit is to be performed.
4. An apparatus for decoding video, the apparatus comprising:
an entropy decoder which extracts information regarding a prediction mode for a current decoding unit, which is to be decoded, from a received bitstream;
a predictor which produces a first predicted decoding unit of the current decoding unit, based on the extracted information;
a determiner which determines whether the current decoding unit includes a portion located outside a boundary of a current picture; and
a post-processor which produces a second predicted decoding unit by changing values of pixels of the first predicted decoding unit by using the pixels of the first predicted decoding unit and neighboring pixels of the pixels when the current decoding unit does not include the portion located outside the boundary of the current picture, and which skips the producing the second predicted decoding unit when the current decoding unit includes the portion located outside the boundary of the current picture.
5. The apparatus of claim 4 , wherein the determiner obtains index information indicating whether a process of producing the second predicted decoding unit is to be performed.
6. The apparatus of claim 5 , wherein:
if the index information has a first predetermined value, the index information indicates that the process of producing the second predicted decoding unit is not to be performed; and
if the index information has a second predetermined value, the index information indicates that the process of producing the second predicted decoding unit is to be performed.
7. A non-transitory computer readable recording medium having recorded thereon a program code for executing the method of claim 1 .
