Abstract

A method for decoding an image signal according to the present invention may comprise the steps of: obtaining a first prediction sample of a current block by performing inter prediction on the current block; determining one or more weight prediction parameter candidates for the current block; determining a weight prediction parameter of the current block from the one or more weight prediction parameter candidates; and obtaining a second prediction sample of the current block by applying the weight prediction parameter to the first prediction sample. Herein, a number of the one or more weight prediction parameter candidates is variably determined based on a size of the current block.

Claims (21)

1. A method for decoding a video signal with a decoding apparatus, comprising:

obtaining, with the decoding apparatus, a first prediction sample of a current block by performing inter prediction on the current block;

determining, with the decoding apparatus, one or more weight prediction parameter candidates for the current block;

determining, with the decoding apparatus, a weight prediction parameter of the current block from the one or more weight prediction parameter candidates; and

obtaining, with the decoding apparatus, a second prediction sample of the current block by applying the weight prediction parameter to the first prediction sample,

wherein a number of the one or more weight prediction parameter candidates is variably determined based on a size of the current block.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein when the size of the current block is equal to a first block size, the number of the one or more weight prediction parameter candidates available for the current block is five, and

wherein when the size of the current block is equal to a second block size, the number of the one or more weight prediction parameter candidates available for the current block is less than five.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein when the number of the one or more weight prediction parameter candidates is greater than one, the weight prediction parameter of the current block is determined based on index information specifying the weight prediction parameter of the current block among the weight prediction parameter candidates.

4. A method for encoding a video signal with an encoding apparatus, comprising:

obtaining, with the encoding apparatus, a first prediction sample of a current block by performing inter prediction on the current block;

determining, with the encoding apparatus, one or more weight prediction parameter candidates for the current block;

determining, with the encoding apparatus, a weight prediction parameter of the current block from the one or more weight prediction parameter candidates; and

obtaining, with the encoding apparatus, a second prediction sample of the current block by applying the weight prediction parameter to the first prediction sample,

wherein a number of the one or more weight prediction parameter candidates is variably determined based on a size of the current block.

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

a data stream including an encoded residual coefficient of a residual block obtained based on a second prediction sample of a current block,

wherein the second prediction sample is obtained by applying a weight prediction parameter of the current block to a first prediction sample of the current block,

wherein the weight prediction parameter is determined from one or more weight prediction parameter candidates of the current block,

wherein the first prediction sample is obtained by performing inter prediction on the current block, and

wherein a number of the one or more weight prediction parameter candidates is variably determined based on a size of the current block.
