Abstract

A picture decoding method, performed by a decoding apparatus according to the present disclosure, comprises the steps of: when an intra-prediction mode of a chroma block is a cross-component linear model (CCLM) mode, deriving neighboring chroma reference samples with respect to the chroma block; deriving neighboring luma reference samples of a luma block corresponding to the chroma block and luma samples in the luma block; deriving down-sampled neighboring luma reference samples and downsampled luma samples by down sampling the neighboring luma reference samples and the luma samples, respectively; deriving a linear model parameter on the basis of the down-sampled neighboring luma reference samples and the neighboring chroma reference samples; generating prediction samples with respect to the chroma block on the basis of the linear model parameter and the down-sampled luma samples of the luma block; and reconstructing the chroma block on the basis of the prediction samples with respect to the chroma block.
