Abstract

Provided is a scalable video-decoding method based on multiple layers. The scalable video-decoding method according to the present invention comprises: a step of predicting first filter information of a video to be filtered using the information contained in an object layer and/or information contained in another layer, and generating second filter information in accordance with the prediction; and a step of filtering the video to be filtered using the second filter information. According to the present invention, the amount of information being transmitted is reduced, and video compression performance is improved.

wherein the object layer is a layer including the video to be filtered, the other layer that is a layer other than the object layer is used to perform decoding at the object layer, the first filter information is information for filtering of the video to be filtered, and the second filter information is prediction filter information generated for filtering the video to be filtered, and

wherein the performing of the video to be filtered using the first filter information based on the second filter information includes:

generating the first filter information by summing up the second filter information and the difference information; and

performing the filtering on the video to be filtered using the first filter information.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first filter information is at least one of adaptive loop filter information, interpolation filter information, and deblocking filter information.

3. The method of claim 1 ,

further comprising receiving a filter information prediction indicator from a coder,

wherein the filter information prediction indicator indicates at least one of information on whether prediction for any of the first filter information is performed, information on whether the prediction for the first filter information is performed using information of any layer, information on whether the first filter information is predicted from any filter information, and information on a method using the second filter information.
