Abstract

A method by which a decoding device decodes an image, according to the present document, comprises the steps of: generating a restoration picture on the basis of prediction samples of a coding block; deriving a boundary strength (BS) for a boundary of the coding block in the restoration picture; performing deblocking filtering on the boundary of the coding block on the basis of the boundary strength; and deriving a modified restoration picture for the restoration picture on the basis of the deblocking filtering, wherein the boundary strength is derived on the basis of a prediction mode of a first block and a second block that are adjacent to the boundary of the coding block, and the prediction mode of the first block or the second block is derived on the basis of whether the prediction mode of the first block or the second block is a current picture referencing (CPR) mode to be coded in reference to a current picture.
