Abstract

The present invention relates to a method for encoding/decoding a video. To this end, the method for decoding a video may include: deriving a spatial merge candidate from at least one of spatial candidate blocks of a current block, deriving a temporal merge candidate from a co-located block of the current block, and generating a prediction block of the current block based on at least one of the derived spatial merge candidate and the derived temporal merge candidate, wherein a reference picture for the temporal merge candidate is selected based on a reference picture list of a current picture including the current block and a reference picture list of a co-located picture including the co-located block.

Claims (26)

1. A method for decoding a video, the method comprising:

obtaining a plurality of sub-blocks by dividing a current block into sub-block units;

deriving motion information of each of the plurality of the sub-blocks by using motion information of co-located sub-blocks corresponding to each of the plurality of the sub-blocks; and

generating a sub-block-based temporal merge candidate of the current block by using the derived motion information of the plurality of the sub-blocks,

wherein when there is a co-located sub-block for which motion information is not available, motion information of a sub-block corresponding to the co-located sub-block for which the motion information is not available is determined as motion information of a center block of the co-located block of the current block,

wherein the co-located sub-blocks and the co-located block are present in a co-located picture of the current block, and

wherein a position of the co-located sub-block and co-located block are determined by a motion vector of a neighboring block of the current block.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the neighboring block of the current block is a neighboring block which is a first order in the spatial merge candidate search order.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the neighboring block of the current block is a block adjacent to the left side of the current block.

4. A method for encoding a video, the method comprising:

obtaining a plurality of sub-blocks by dividing a current block into sub-block units;

deriving motion information of each of the plurality of the sub-blocks by using motion information of co-located sub-blocks corresponding to each of the plurality of the sub-blocks; and

generating sub-block-based temporal merge candidate of the current block by using the derived motion information of the plurality of the sub-blocks,

wherein when there is a co-located sub-block for which motion information is not available, motion information of a sub-block corresponding to the co-located sub-block for which the motion information is not available is determined as motion information of a center block of the co-located block of the current block,

wherein the co-located sub-blocks and the co-located block are present in a co-located picture of the current block, and

wherein a position of the co-located sub-bock and co-located block are determined by a motion vector of a neighboring block of the current block.

5. The method of claim 4 , wherein the neighboring block of the current block is a neighboring block which is a first order in the spatial merge candidate search order.

6. The method of claim 4 , wherein the neighboring block of the current block is a block adjacent to the left side of the current block.

7. A non-transitory computer readable recording medium storing a bitstream generated by an image encoding method,

wherein the video encoding method comprises:

obtaining a plurality of sub-blocks by dividing a current block into sub-block units;

deriving motion information of each of the plurality of the sub-blocks by using motion information of co-located sub-blocks corresponding to each of the plurality of the sub-blocks; and

generating sub-block-based temporal merge candidate of the current block by using the derived motion information of the plurality of the sub-blocks,

wherein when there is a co-located sub-block for which motion information is not available, motion information of a sub-block corresponding to the co-located sub-block for which the motion information is not available is determined as motion information of a center block of the co-located block of the current block,

wherein the co-located sub-blocks and the co-located block are present in a co-located picture of the current block, and

wherein a position of the co-located sub-block and co-located block are determined by a motion vector of a neighboring block of the current block.
