Abstract

A method for processing a video according to the present invention may comprise: generating a plurality of Most Probable Mode (MPM) candidates; determining whether there is an MPM candidate identical to an intra-prediction mode of a current block among the plurality of MPM candidates; obtaining the intra-prediction mode of the current block, based on a result of the determining; and performing an intra-prediction for the current block, based on the intra-prediction mode of the current block.

Claims (28)

1. A method of decoding a video, the method comprising:

determining a prediction mode of a current block, the prediction mode being determined as one of intra prediction and inter prediction;

obtaining a first prediction sample of the current block by performing the intra prediction or the inter prediction for the current block according to the prediction mode; and

obtaining a second prediction sample of the current block based on the first prediction sample,

wherein reference samples of the current block are derived based on reconstructed samples adjacent to the current block,

wherein the second prediction sample is obtained by applying a first weight to the first prediction sample and applying a second weight to a value derived by at least one of the reference samples, and

wherein the first weight and the second weight are determined based on whether a neighboring block adjacent to the current block is coded by the intra prediction or not.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first weight and the second weight are determined differently between when the neighboring block is coded by the intra prediction and when the neighboring block is coded by the inter prediction.

3. The method of claim 1 , the neighboring block is a top neighboring block or a left neighboring block.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the value is derived by using at least one of a top neighboring sample which has a same x-coordinate as the first prediction sample or a left neighboring sample which has a same y-coordinate as the first prediction sample.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first weight is greater when the neighboring block is coded by the inter prediction than when the neighboring block is coded by the intra prediction, and

wherein the second weight is smaller when the neighboring block is coded by the inter prediction than when the neighboring block is coded by the intra prediction.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein deriving the second prediction sample by using the weighted sum operation is allowed only when a size of the current block satisfies a pre-defined condition.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein a set of the first weight and the second weight is determined as {½, ½} or {¼, ¾} depending on which one of the intra prediction and the inter prediction is applied to the neighboring block.

8. A method of encoding a video, the method comprising:

encoding information on a prediction mode of a current block, the prediction mode representing one of intra prediction and inter prediction;

obtaining a first prediction sample of the current block by performing the intra prediction or the inter prediction for the current block; and

obtaining a second prediction sample of the current block based on the first prediction sample,

wherein reference samples of the current block are derived based on reconstructed samples adjacent to the current block,

wherein the second prediction sample is obtained by applying a first weight to the first prediction sample and applying a second weight to a value derived by at least one of the reference samples, and

wherein the first weight and the second weight are determined based on whether a neighboring block adjacent to the current block is coded by the intra prediction or not.

9. A non-transitory computer-readable medium for storing data associated with a video signal, comprising:

a data stream stored in the non-transitory computer-readable medium, the data stream including information on a prediction mode of a current block, the prediction mode representing one of intra prediction and inter prediction,

wherein a first prediction sample of the current block is obtained by performing the intra prediction or the inter prediction for the current block according to the prediction mode,

wherein a second prediction sample of the current block is obtained based on the first prediction sample,

wherein reference samples of the current block are derived based on reconstructed samples adjacent to the current block,

wherein the second prediction sample is obtained by applying a first weight to the first prediction sample and applying a second weight to a value derived by at least one of the reference samples, and

wherein the first weight and the second weight are determined based on whether a neighboring block adjacent to the current block is coded by the intra prediction or not.
