Abstract

An image decoding method according to the present document can comprise the steps of: on the basis of first flag information indicating whether or not matrix-based intra prediction (MIP) can be applied to a current block, receiving second flag information indicating whether or not the MIP is used for the current block; receiving matrix-based intra prediction (MIP) mode information on the basis of the second flag information; generating intra prediction samples for the current block on the basis of the MIP mode information; and generating reconstructed samples for the current block on the basis of the intra prediction samples.
