Abstract

A method and a device for encoding and decoding infra prediction are disclosed. An image decoding method for performing intra prediction comprises the steps of: receiving a bitstream including data on prediction modes of a current block and a block adjacent to the current block; extracting the data from the received bitstream so as to confirm the prediction mode of the adjacent block; determining whether a boundary pixel within the adjacent block can be used as a reference pixel for the current block in consideration of the prediction mode of the adjacent block; obtaining the reference pixel of the current block according to the determined result; generating a prediction block predicted in the frame on the basis of the obtained reference pixel; and decoding the current block by using the generated prediction block.

Claims (37)

1. An image decoding method, comprising:

decoding current picture reference information indicating whether block matching prediction is enabled in the current picture;

generating a reference picture list 0 and a reference picture list 1 for a current block, the current picture is assigned to the reference picture list 0 and the reference picture list 1 according to the current picture reference information;

determining a reference picture of the current block based on the reference picture list 0 and the reference picture list 1; and

generating a prediction block of the current block using the reference picture,

wherein the current picture is assigned to the reference picture list 0 after assigning of a first reference picture previous to the current picture, and

wherein the current picture is assigned to the reference picture list 1 after assigning of a second reference picture subsequent to the current picture.

2. The method of claim 1 ,

wherein the reference picture list 0 is generated by sequentially assigning the first reference picture, the second reference picture and the current picture, and

wherein the reference picture list 1 is generated by sequentially assigning the second reference picture, the first reference picture and the current picture.

3. The method of claim 1 ,

wherein the current picture reference information is signaled in a picture unit or a sequence unit.

4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

decoding a skip mode flag information indicating whether a skip mode is applied to the current block at least partly based on the current picture reference information, and

reconstructing the current block based on the prediction block of the current block without a residual block of the current block at least partly in response to that the skip mode is applied to the current block.

5. An image encoding method, comprising:

generating a reference picture list 0 and a reference picture list 1 for a current block, a current picture is assigned to the reference picture list 0 and the reference picture list 1 based on whether block matching prediction is enabled in the current picture;

determining a reference picture of the current block based on the reference picture list 0 and the reference picture list 1;

performing prediction on the current block using the reference picture; and

encoding current picture reference information indicating whether the block matching prediction is enabled in the current picture,

wherein the current picture is assigned to the reference picture list 0 after assigning of a first reference picture previous to the current picture, and

wherein the current picture is assigned to the reference picture list 1 after assigning of a second reference picture subsequent to the current picture.

6. The method of claim 5 ,

wherein the reference picture list 0 is generated by sequentially assigning the first reference picture, the second reference picture and the current picture, and

wherein the reference picture list 1 is generated by sequentially assigning the second reference picture, the first reference picture and the current picture.

7. The method of claim 5 ,

wherein the current picture reference information is encoded in a picture unit or a sequence unit.

8. The method of claim 5 , further comprising:

encoding a skip mode flag information indicating whether a skip mode is applied to the current block at least partly based on the current picture reference information, and

wherein encoding of a residual block of the current block is skipped at least partly in response to that the skip mode is applied to the current block.

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

generating a reference picture list 0 and a reference picture list 1 for a current block, a current picture is assigned to the reference picture list 0 and the reference picture list 1 based on whether block matching prediction is enabled in the current picture;

determining a reference picture of the current block based on the reference picture list 0 and the reference picture list 1;

performing prediction on the current block using the reference picture; and

encoding current picture reference information indicating whether the block matching prediction is enabled in the current picture,

wherein the current picture is assigned to the reference picture list 0 after assigning of a first reference picture previous to the current picture, and

wherein the current picture is assigned to the reference picture list 1 after assigning of a second reference picture subsequent to the current picture.
