Abstract

Provided is a method for decoding an image. The method may include: deciding a prediction mode that corresponds to a chroma component block; deciding a transform skip mode of the chroma component block from a plurality of transform skip mode candidates, according to the prediction mode that corresponds to the chroma component block; and reverse-transforming the chroma component block on the basis of the transform skip mode that is decided.

Claims (13)

1. A method of decoding, based on loss coding, a video signal having a current block to be decoded with a decoding apparatus, comprising:

obtaining, from the video signal, residual coefficients relating to the current block, a first transform skip flag relating to luma components of the current block and a second transform skip flag relating to chroma components of the current block,

wherein the residual coefficients include first residual coefficients relating to the luma components of the current block and second residual coefficients relating to the chroma components of the current block;

performing an inverse-quantization on the first residual coefficients and the second residual coefficients of the current block;

obtaining residual samples of the current block by selectively performing an inverse-transform for first inverse-quantized residual coefficients resulting from the inverse quantization of the first residual coefficients and second inverse-quantized residual coefficients resulting from the inverse-quantization of the second residual coefficients,

wherein the first transform skip flag specifies whether the inverse-transform is performed or skipped on the first inverse-quantized residual coefficients resulting from the inverse-quantization of the first residual coefficients, and the second transform skip flag specifies whether the inverse-transform is performed or skipped on the second inverse-quantized residual coefficients resulting from the inverse-quantization of the second residual coefficients,

wherein determination of skipping the inverse-transform on the first inverse-quantized residual coefficients is independent with determination of skipping the inverse-transform on the second inverse-quantized residual coefficients, and

wherein when the first transform skip flag specifies that the inverse-transform is skipped on the first inverse-quantized residual coefficients, the residual samples of the luma components of the current block is obtained by scaling the first inverse-quantized residual coefficients, and when the second transform skip flag specifies that the inverse-transform is skipped on the second inverse-quantized residual coefficients, the residual samples of the chroma components of the current block is obtained by scaling the second inverse-quantized residual coefficients;

performing an intra prediction or an inter prediction for the current block; and

reconstructing the current block by using the residual samples and prediction samples obtained by performing the intra prediction or the inter prediction.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the inverse-transform includes a transform on rows of the current block and a transform on columns of the current block.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the inverse-transform is performed by using one of a discrete cosine transform and a discrete sine transform.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the inter prediction is performed using motion information, the motion information including a motion vector and a reference index.
