Abstract

An image decoding method according to the present invention comprises the steps of: deriving most probable mode (MPM) candidates on the basis of an intra-prediction mode of candidate blocks; determining whether the MPM candidate having the intra-prediction mode, which is the same as that of a current block, exists among MPM candidates; and deriving the intra-prediction mode of the current block on the basis of the determination, wherein the candidate block includes a neighboring block which is adjacent to the current block, and a non-neighboring block which is not adjacent to the current block.

Claims (26)

1. A method of decoding an image,

wherein Most Probable Mode (MPM) candidates are derived based on intra prediction modes of candidate blocks including a neighboring block adjacent to a current block in the image, the method comprising:

determining, based on a default mode flag signaled from a bitstream, whether an intra prediction mode of the current block is a default mode; and

deriving the intra prediction mode of the current block based on the determination,

wherein the default mode includes at least one of a planar mode, a DC mode, a vertical mode, a horizontal mode, or a diagonal mode,

wherein in response to the default mode flag of a first value, the intra prediction mode of the current block is set equal to the default mode, and

wherein in response to the default mode flag of a second value, the intra prediction mode of the current block is derived as an MPM candidate identical to the intra prediction mode of the current block among the MPM candidates.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein an index allocated to each of the MPM candidates is determined based on a priority between the candidate blocks.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the priority is determined based on whether a shape of the current block is the same as a shape of a candidate block.

4. A method of encoding an image,

wherein Most Probable Mode (MPM) candidates are derived based on intra prediction modes of candidate blocks including a neighboring block adjacent to a current block in the image, the method comprising:

determining whether an intra prediction mode of the current block is a default mode; and

determining the intra prediction mode of the current block based on the determination,

wherein the default mode includes at least one of a planar mode, a DC mode, a vertical mode, a horizontal mode, or a diagonal mode,

wherein in response to the determination that the intra prediction mode of the current block is the default mode, the default mode flag of a first value is encoded into a bitstream,

wherein in response to the determination that the intra prediction mode of the current block is not the default mode, the default mode flag of a second value is encoded into the bitstream, and

wherein in response to the default mode flag of the second value, the intra prediction mode of the current block is the same as one of the MPM candidates.

5. The method of claim 4 , wherein an index allocated to each of the MPM candidates is determined based on a priority between the candidate blocks.

6. The method of claim 5 , wherein the priority is determined based on whether a shape of the current block is the same as a shape of a candidate block.

7. A non-transitory computer-readable medium for storing data associated with a video signal, comprising:

a data stream stored in the non-transitory computer-readable medium, the data stream comprising a default mode flag specifying whether an intra prediction mode of a current block is a default mode or not,

wherein the default mode includes at least one of a planar mode, a DC mode, a vertical mode, a horizontal mode, or a diagonal mode,

wherein the intra prediction mode of the current block is determined based on the default mode flag,

wherein in response to the default mode flag of a first value, the intra prediction mode of the current block is set equal to the default mode,

wherein in response to the default mode flag of a second value, the intra prediction mode of the current block is derived as an MPM candidate identical to the intra prediction mode of the current block among Most Probable Mode (MPM) candidates, and

wherein the MPM candidates are derived based on intra prediction modes of candidate blocks including a neighboring block adjacent to the current block.
