Abstract

The present invention relates to an apparatus and method for encoding and decoding an image by skip encoding. The image-encoding method by skip encoding, which performs intra-prediction, comprises: performing a filtering operation on the signal which is reconstructed prior to an encoding object signal in an encoding object image; using the filtered reconstructed signal to generate a prediction signal for the encoding object signal; setting the generated prediction signal as a reconstruction signal for the encoding object signal; and not encoding the residual signal which can be generated on the basis of the difference between the encoding object signal and the prediction signal, thereby performing skip encoding on the encoding object signal.

Claims (44)

generating a residual signal of a current block;

generating a predictive signal of the current block;

reconstructing the current block based on the residual signal and the predictive signal;

performing second filtering on the first filtered reconstructed samples, based on an adaptive filter other than the deblocking filter,

wherein the second filtering is performed in a block unit using at least one adaptive filtering parameter, and

wherein a filter shape of the adaptive filter is adaptively determined based on a block which is the second filtering is performed.

2. The video decoding method of claim 1 ,

wherein the performing deblocking filtering comprises:

determining whether to perform the deblocking filtering based on at least one of a filter strength and a result value calculated using a sample neighboring a boundary of the reconstructed current block.

6. The video decoding method of claim 1 ,

wherein the performing additional filtering comprises:

determining a filter coefficient; and

performing first filtering on reconstructed samples including the reconstructed current block, based on a deblocking liter; and

performing second filtering on the first filtered reconstructed samples, based on an adaptive filter other than the deblocking filter,

wherein the second filtering is performed in a block unit using at least one adaptive filtering parameter, and

wherein a filter shape of the adaptive filter is adaptively determined based on a block which is the second filtering is performed.

9. A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium storing a bitstream generated by a video encoding method, the video encoding method comprising:

generating a predictive signal of a current block;

generating a residual signal of the current block using the predictive signal and encoding the residual signal;

decoding the encoded residual signal;
