Abstract

An image decoding method according to the present document comprises a step of deriving a corrected transform coefficient, wherein the step of deriving the corrected transform coefficient comprises the steps of: determining whether LFNST can be applied to the height and width of a divided sub-partition block when an ISP is applied to a current block; parsing a LFNST index when the LFNST can be applied; and deriving the corrected transform coefficient on the basis of the LFNST index and a LFNST matrix.

1. An image decoding method performed by a decoding apparatus, comprising:

obtaining residual information from a bitstream;

deriving transform coefficients for a current block based on the residual information;

deriving modified transform coefficients by applying a low-frequency non-separable transform (LFNST) to the transform coefficients;

deriving residual samples for the current block by applying an inverse primary transform to the modified transform coefficients; and

3. The method of claim 1 ,

wherein the current block is a coding unit, and

wherein when a width and a height of the coding unit are equal to or less than a maximum luma transform size that is available for transform, the LFNST index is parsed.

4. An image encoding method performed by an encoding apparatus, comprising:

deriving prediction samples for a current block;

deriving residual samples for the current block based on the prediction samples;

deriving transform coefficients for the current block by applying a primary transform to the residual samples;
