Abstract

A picture encoding method that includes selecting a V th basis function for a current block according to a specific order from among basis functions; deriving a V th expansion coefficient on the basis of the selected V th basis function; calculating a V th weighted error criterion on the basis of the selected V th basis function and the derived V th expansion coefficient; and encoding and outputting information indicating the V th number as a basis number when the value of the V th weighted error criterion is less than a specific critical value.
