Abstract

A video signal processor is configured to: obtain at least one transform block for a residual signal of a current block from a video signal bitstream, wherein the transform block comprises a plurality of transform coefficients two-dimensionally arranged, determine, on the basis of length information of a first side of the transform block, a horizontal transform kernel for horizontal transformation of the transform block, regardless of a length of a second side of the transform block, which is orthogonal to the first side, determine, on the basis of length information of the second side, a vertical transform kernel for vertical transformation of the transform block, regardless of a length of the first side, obtain the residual signal of the current block by performing, on the transform block, inverse transformation using the horizontal transform kernel and the vertical transform kernel, and reconstruct the current block based on the residual signal.
