Abstract

Provided is a video encoding apparatus, including a signal separator to separate a differential image block into a first domain and a second domain, based on a boundary line included in the differential image block, the differential image block indicating a difference between an original image and a prediction image with respect to the original image, a transform encoder to perform a transform encoding with respect to the first domain using a discrete cosine transform (DCT), a quantization unit to quantize an output of the transform encoding unit in a frequency domain, a space domain quantization unit to quantize the second domain in a space domain, and an entropy encoder to perform an entropy encoding using outputs of the quantization unit and the space domain quantization unit.

Claims (7)

1. A video decoding apparatus, comprising:

a signal separator configured to determine whether a block is a first block with a size that is not a minimum size (4×4) or a second block with a size that is a minimum size (4×4), and configured to determine whether the second block is transformed based on information indicating whether the block is not transformed, wherein the information is not signaled for the first block and is signaled for the second block;

a dequantizer configured to dequantize the first block in a frequency domain and the second block in a space domain in response to the information indicating that the second block is not transformed, and to dequantize the first block and the second block in the frequency domain in response to the information indicating that the second block is transformed;

a transformer configured to perform inverse-transform on the dequantized first block to generate a residual image block from the frequency domain to the space domain in response to the information indicating that the second block is not transformed, and to perform inverse-transform on the dequantized first block and the dequantized second block to generate the residual image block from the frequency domain to the space domain in response to the information indicating that the second block is transformed; and

an image generator configured to construct an image to be decoded by combining residual image blocks from the first block with residual blocks from the second block.

2. The video decoding apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the information indicating whether the second block to be decoded is transformed comprises coordinate information indicating a location of the second block.

3. The video decoding apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the information indicating whether the second block to be decoded is transformed is transmitted from the encoding device.
