Abstract

The invention relates to a method and a device for decoding an image by means of a partition unit comprising an additional region. The method of decoding an image by means of a partition unit comprising an additional region comprises the steps of: partitioning, by reference to a syntax element acquired from a received bit stream, an encoded image, which is included in the bitstream, in at least one partition unit; define an additional region for at least one partition unit; and decoding the encoded image based on the partition unit for which the additional region is defined. The invention improves the image coding efficiency.

Claims (40)

1. A method for decoding an image using a division unit, comprises:

dividing an encoded image included in a received bitstream into at least one division unit by referring to a syntax obtained from the received bitstream;

deriving an intra prediction mode of a current block in the division unit;

deriving a reference sample layer of the current block from a plurality of reference sample layers;

generating reference samples based on the derived reference sample layer; and

generating a prediction sample of the current block based on the reference samples and the intra prediction mode,

wherein the plurality of reference sample layers are included in reconstructed neighboring blocks of the current block, and

wherein each of the reference sample layers of the current block has a different distance from a boundary of the current block.

2. The method of claim 1 ,

wherein when the intra prediction mode is a non-directional mode, the prediction sample is generated by using only the reference sample layer having a shortest distance from the boundary of the current block.

3. The method of claim 2 ,

wherein the non-directional mode is representative of a planar mode.

4. The method of claim 1 ,

wherein the reference sample layer is derived based on a color component.

5. The method of claim 1 ,

wherein a number of the plurality of reference sample layers is equal to or more than 3.

6. A method for encoding an image using a division unit, comprises:

dividing the image into at least one division unit;

determining an intra prediction mode of a current block in the division unit;

determining a reference sample layer of the current block from a plurality of reference sample layers;

generating reference samples based on the determined reference sample layer; and

generating a prediction sample of the current block based on the reference samples and the intra prediction mode,

wherein the plurality of reference sample layers are included in reconstructed neighboring blocks of the current block, and

wherein each of the reference sample layers of the current block has a different distance from a boundary of the current block.

7. The method of claim 6 ,

wherein when the intra prediction mode is a non-directional mode, the prediction sample is generated by using only the reference sample layer having a shortest distance from the boundary of the current block.

8. The method of claim 7 ,

wherein the non-directional mode is representative of a planar mode.

9. The method of claim 6 ,

wherein the reference sample layer is determined based on a color component.

10. The method of claim 6 ,

wherein a number of the plurality of reference sample layers is equal to or more than 3.

11. A non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing information causing a decoding apparatus to perform operations comprising:

dividing an encoded image included in a received bitstream into at least one division unit by referring to a syntax obtained from the received bitstream;

deriving an intra prediction mode of a current block in the division unit;

deriving a reference sample layer of the current block from a plurality of reference sample layers;

generating reference samples based on the derived reference sample layer; and

generating a prediction sample of the current block based on the reference samples and the intra prediction mode,

wherein the plurality of reference sample layers are included in reconstructed neighboring blocks of the current block, and

wherein each of the reference sample layers of the current block has a different distance from a boundary of the current block.
