Abstract

A method and a device for processing a video signal are disclosed. In particular, a method for decoding a video signal includes parsing a first syntax element indicating a primary transform kernel applied to a primary transform of a current block; determining whether a secondary transform is applicable to the current block based on the first syntax element; if the secondary transform is applicable to the current block, parsing a second syntax element indicating a secondary transform kernel applied to a secondary transform of the current block; deriving a secondary inverse-transformed block, by performing a secondary inverse-transform for a top-left specific region of the current block using a secondary transform kernel indicated by the second syntax element; and deriving a residual block of the current block, by performing a primary inverse-transform for the secondary inverse-transformed block using a primary transform kernel indicated by the first syntax element.

Claims (24)

1. A method for decoding a video signal by an apparatus, comprising:

parsing a syntax element including information about whether a secondary transform is applicable to a current block and information about a secondary transform kernel applied as the secondary transform of the current block;

determining a secondary transform kernel set used for the secondary transform of the current block among a plurality of secondary transform kernel sets based on an intra prediction mode of the current block, wherein each of a plurality of intra prediction modes is mapped into one of the plurality of secondary transform kernel sets, and each secondary transform kernel set of the plurality of secondary transform kernel sets comprises two transform kernels;

determining the secondary transform kernel among the two transform kernels included in the determined secondary transform kernel set, based on the syntax element;

deriving a secondary inverse-transformed block, by performing a secondary inverse-transform for a top-left specific region of the current block based on the determined secondary transform kernel; and

deriving a residual block of the current block, by performing a primary inverse-transform for the secondary inverse-transformed block based on a primary transform kernel, wherein the primary transform kernel is a predefined transform kernel based on that the syntax element includes information that the secondary transform is applicable to a current block.

2. The method of claim 1 ,

wherein parsing a syntax element comprises determining that the secondary transform is applicable to the current block based on that the syntax element has non-zero value.

3. The method of claim 2 ,

wherein the pre-defined transform kernel is DCT2.

4. An apparatus for decoding a video signal, comprising:

a memory configured to store the video signal; and

a processor coupled to the memory,

wherein the processor is configured to:

parse a syntax element including information about whether a secondary transform is applicable to a current block and information about a secondary transform kernel applied as the secondary transform of the current block;

determine a secondary transform kernel set used for the secondary transform of the current block among a plurality of secondary transform kernel sets based on an intra prediction mode of the current block, wherein each of a plurality of intra prediction modes is mapped into one of the plurality of secondary transform kernel sets, and each secondary transform kernel set of the plurality of secondary transform kernel sets comprises two transform kernels;

determine the secondary transform kernel among the two transform kernels included in the determined secondary transform kernel set, based on the syntax element;

derive a secondary inverse-transformed block, by performing a secondary inverse-transform for a top-left specific region of the current block based on the determined secondary transform kernel; and

derive a residual block of the current block, by performing a primary inverse-transform for the secondary inverse-transformed block based on a primary transform kernel included in the syntax element,

wherein the primary transform kernel is a pre-defined transform kernel based on that the syntax element includes information that the secondary transform is applicable to a current block.

5. The apparatus of claim 4 ,

wherein the processor is configured to determine that the secondary transform is applicable to the current block based on that the syntax element has non-zero value.

6. The apparatus of claim 5 ,

wherein the pre-defined transform kernel is defined as DCT2.
