Abstract

A method by which a decoding device decodes an image, according to the present document, comprises the steps of: receiving prediction mode information about a current block; receiving intra sub-partitions (ISP)-related information about the current block on the basis of the size and the maximum conversion block size of the current block; deriving an intra prediction mode of the current block on the basis of the prediction mode information; and generating a prediction sample of the current block on the basis of the intra prediction mode and the ISP-related information.

Claims (48)

receiving prediction mode information for a current block;

receiving intra sub-partition (ISP) related information for the current block based on a size of the current block and a maximum transform block size;

2. The image decoding method of claim 1 , wherein, based on the information on whether the ISP is applied, indicating that the ISP is applied to the current block, the ISP related information further includes information on a split direction.

3. The image decoding method of claim 2 , wherein the information on whether the ISP is applied includes an intra_subpartitions_mode_flag field, and a value of the intra_subpartitions_mode_flag field is 0 or 1, and

wherein the information on the split direction includes an intra_subpartitions_split_flag field, and a value of the intra_subpartitions_split_flag field is 0 or 1.

4. The image decoding method of claim 2 , wherein the prediction sample is generated based on the intra prediction mode and sub-partitions of the current block, and
