Abstract

A method and a device for encoding/decoding images are disclosed. The method for encoding images comprises the steps of: deriving a scan type of a residual signal for a current block according to whether or not the current block is a transform skip block; and applying the scan type to the residual signal for the current block, wherein the transform skip block is a block to which transform for the current block is not applied and is specified on the basis of information indicating whether or not transform for the current block is to be applied.

Claims (25)

1. A video decoding method comprising:

obtaining first information indicating whether a residual signal is present in a current block, the current block including one or more transform coefficient levels other than 0 when the first information indicates that the residual signal is present in the current block;

when the first information indicates that the residual signal is present in the current block, obtaining the residual signal of the current block;

obtaining second information indicating whether an inverse-transform is performed on the residual signal of the current block;

determining a transform type of the current block when the second information indicates that the inverse-transform is performed on the current block; and

performing the inverse-transform on the residual signal of the current block based on the determined transform type,

wherein the transform type is determined to be a DCT (Discrete Cosine Transform) or a DST (Discrete Sine Transform),

wherein the transform type is determined independently to an intra prediction mode of the current block, and

wherein the transform type is determined based on a size of the current block.

2. A video encoding method comprising:

obtaining, transform coefficients of a current block by performing inverse-quantization on quantized transform coefficients of the current block;

obtaining, residual signal of the current block by performing an inverse-transform on the transform coefficients of the current block based on a transform type of the current block;

encoding first information indicating whether the residual signal is present in the current block and second information indicating whether the inverse-transform is performed on the residual signal of the current block,

wherein the transform type is determined to be a Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) or a Discrete Sine Transform (DST),

wherein the transform type is determined independently of an intra prediction mode of the current block, and

wherein the transform type is determined based on a size of the current block.

3. A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium storing a bitstream which is decoded by a decoding process, and used to reconstruct an image, wherein the bitstream comprises a first information and a second information of a current block,

wherein, in the decoding process, the first information is used for indicating whether a residual signal is present in the current block,

wherein, in the decoding process, when the first information indicates that the residual signal is present in the current block, the current block includes one or more transform coefficient levels other than 0,

wherein, in the decoding process, the second information indicates whether an inverse-transform is performed on the residual signal of the current block,

wherein, in the decoding process, a transform type of the current block is determined when the second information indicates that the inverse-transform is performed on the current block,

wherein, in the decoding process, the inverse-transform is performed by using the determined transform type,

wherein, in the decoding process, the transform type is determined to be a DCT (Discrete Cosine Transform) or a DST (Discrete Sine Transform),

wherein, in the decoding process, the transform type is determined independently to an intra prediction mode of the current block, and

wherein the transform type is determined based on a size of the current block.
