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 method comprising:

determining whether a current 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);

when the current block is the second block, obtaining, from a bitstream, information indicating whether the current block is inverse-transformed or not, wherein the information is not signaled for the first block and is signaled for the second block;

generating a residual image relating to the current block by performing a dequantization on residual coefficients relating to the current block and performing selectively an inverse-transform on the dequantized residual coefficients based on the information indicating whether the current block is inverse-transformed or not; and

constructing a decoded image using the residual image relating to the current block.

2. The video decoding method of claim 1 , wherein an encoded image containing the current block is partitioned into partitioned blocks, wherein some of the partitioned blocks are not inverse-transformed, and wherein remaining partitioned blocks are inverse-transformed.

3. The video decoding method of claim 1 , wherein the information indicating whether the current block is inverse-transformed or not is specified by coordinate information indicating a location of the current block.
