Abstract

The present invention relates to a method and device for sharing a candidate list. A method of generating a merging candidate list for a predictive block may include: producing, on the basis of a coding block including a predictive block on which a parallel merging process is performed, at least one of a spatial merging candidate and a temporal merging candidate of the predictive block; and generating a single merging candidate list for the coding block on the basis of the produced merging candidate. Thus, it is possible to increase processing speeds for coding and decoding by performing inter-picture prediction in parallel on a plurality of predictive blocks.

Claims (10)

1. A method for encoding a video signal comprising:

deriving, based on a position and a size of a coding block, at least one merging candidate relating to a first prediction block, the coding block comprising the first prediction block and a second prediction block;

generating a first merging candidate list for the first prediction block based on the merging candidate; and

obtaining prediction samples of the first prediction block based on the first merging candidate list,

wherein the first merging candidate list for the first prediction block is equivalent to a second merging candidate list for the second prediction block included in the coding block with the first prediction block.

2. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a bitstream formed by a method for encoding a video signal, the method comprising:

deriving, based on a position and a size of a coding block, at least one merging candidate relating to a first prediction block, the coding block comprising the first prediction block and a second prediction block;

generating a first merging candidate list for the first prediction block based on the merging candidate;

obtaining prediction samples of the first prediction block based on the first merging candidate list;

wherein the first merging candidate list for the first prediction block is equivalent to a second merging candidate list for the second prediction block included in the coding block with the first prediction block.
