Abstract

The present disclosure, in a method of decoding a video signal, provides a method including checking whether a transform skip is applied to a current block; acquiring a transform index indicating transform types applied to a horizontal direction and a vertical direction of the current block from among a plurality of predefined transform types from the video signal when the transform skip is not applied to the current block; and performing an inverse primary transform on the current block using the transform types indicated by the transform index, wherein the transform types applied to the horizontal direction and the vertical direction of the current block are determined from among transform types defined according to an intra prediction mode of the current block based on the transform index.

Claims (40)

1. A decoding apparatus of decoding an image, comprising:

a memory; and

at least one processor connected to the memory, and

wherein the at least one processor is configured to:

obtain a flag related to whether a transform skip is applied to a current block;

acquire a transform index indicating a combination of transform types applied to a horizontal direction and a vertical direction of the current block based on the flag specifying that the transform is applied to the current block;

perform inverse transform on coefficients of the current block based on the combination of the transform types indicated by the transform index to generate residual samples of the current block; and

generate reconstructed samples of the current block based on the residual samples, and

wherein the transform index is binarized based on a truncated unary method.

2. The decoding apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to:

determine a region in the current block to which transform has been applied based on the combination of the transform types indicated by the transform index and a size of the current block; and

perform the inverse transform on the region based on the combination of the transform types indicated by the transform index.

3. The decoding apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the transform index indicates one of combinations comprising two transform types selected among a plurality of predefined transform types.

4. The decoding apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the transform index indicates one among combinations of transform types defined in an intra mode group to which an intra prediction mode of the current block belongs, when intra prediction modes are grouped into a plurality of intra mode groups based on a prediction direction.

5. An encoding apparatus of encoding an image, comprising:

a memory; and

at least one processor connected to the memory, and

wherein the at least one processor is configured to:

generate a residual block of a current block based on a prediction block of the current block;

determine whether to apply a transform to the residual block;

generate a transform index indicating a combination of transform types applied to a horizontal direction and a vertical direction of the residual block based on that it is determined that the transform is applied to the residual block;

perform the transform on the residual block based on the combination of the transform types indicated by the transform index; and

binarize the transform index based on a truncated unary method.

6. The encoding apparatus of claim 5 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to:

determine a region in the residual block to which the transform is to be applied based on the combination of the transform types indicated by the transform index and a size of the current block; and

perform the transform on the region based on the combination of the transform types indicated by the transform index.

7. The encoding apparatus of claim 5 , wherein the transform index indicates one of combinations comprising two transform types selected among a plurality of predefined transform types.

8. The encoding apparatus of claim 5 , wherein the transform index indicates one among combinations of transform types defined in an intra mode group to which an intra prediction mode of the current block belongs, when intra prediction modes are grouped into a plurality of intra mode groups based on a prediction direction.

9. A transmitting apparatus of data for image information, comprising

at least one processor configured to obtain a bitstream for the image; and

a transmitter configured to transmit the data comprising the bitstream,

wherein the at least one processor is configured to:

obtain the bitstream for the image; and

transmit the data comprising the bitstream,

wherein, for obtaining the bitstream, the at least one processor is further configured to:

generate a residual block of a current block based on a prediction block of the current block;

determine whether to apply a transform to the residual block;

generate a transform index indicating a combination of transform types applied to a horizontal direction and a vertical direction of the residual block based on that it is determined that the transform is applied to the residual block;

perform the transform on the residual block based on the combination of the transform types indicated by the transform index; and

binarize the transform index based on a truncated unary method.
