Method and apparatus for processing video signal

1. A method of decoding a video, the method comprising:

determining whether it is allowed to divide a current block into two partitions or not;

when it is determined that a division of the current block is allowed, determining whether to divide the current block into the two partitions or not;

when it is determined that the current block is to be divided, decoding a first indicator of 1-bit indicating whether the current block is divided in a symmetric form or in an asymmetric form;

dividing the current block in a vertical direction or in a horizontal direction so as to generate the two partitions; and

performing an inverse-transform for one of the two partitions,

wherein when the first indicator indicates that the current block is divided in the asymmetric form, the current block is divided into a first partition having ¼ size of the current block and a second partition having ¾ size of the current block, and

wherein locations of the first partition and the second partition are determined based on a second indicator of 1-bit decoded from a bitstream.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein when the current block is divided in the horizontal direction, it is determined based on the second indicator which of the first partition and the second partition is located at an upper side of the current block, and

when the current block is divided in the vertical direction, it is determined based on the second indicator which of the first partition and the second partition is located at a left side of the current block.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein it is determined based on a size of the current block whether both the symmetric form and the asymmetric form are applicable to the current block or only the symmetric form is applicable to the current block.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein whether the division of the current block is allowed or not is determined based on an enabled flag.

5. A method of encoding a video, the method comprising:

determining whether it is allowed to divide a current block into two partitions or not;

when it determined that a division of the current block is allowed, determining whether to divide the current block into the two partitions or not;

when it is determined to divide the current block, determining whether the current block is divided in a symmetric form or in an asymmetric form, a first indicator of 1-bit indicating whether the current block is divided in the symmetric form or in the asymmetric form being encoded in a bitstream;

dividing the current block in a vertical direction or in a horizontal direction so as to generate the two partitions;

performing a transform for one of the two partitions,

wherein when it is determined to divide the current block in the asymmetric form, the current block is divided into a first partition having ¼ size of the current block and a second partition having ¾ size of the current block, and

wherein a second indicator of 1-bit which is used to determine locations of the first partition and the second partition is encoded in the bitstream.

6. The method of claim 5 , wherein when the current block is divided in the horizontal direction, the second indicator is used to determine which of the first partition and the second partition is located at an upper side of the current block, and

when the current block is divided in the vertical direction, the second indicator is used to determine which of the first partition and the second partition is located ata left side of the current block.

7. The method of claim 5 , wherein it is determined based on a size of the current block whether both the symmetric form and the asymmetric form are applicable to the current block or only the symmetric form is applicable to the current block.

8. The method of claim 5 , wherein the method further comprises encoding an enabled flag indicating whether the division of the current block is allowed or not.

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

a first indicator of 1-bit indicating whether a current block is divided in a symmetric form or in an asymmetric form,

wherein the first indicator is decoded from the compressed data when it is determined that it is allowed to divide the current block into two partitions and the current block is to be divided into the two partitions,

wherein the current block is divided in a vertical direction or in a horizontal direction so as to generate the two partitions,

wherein an inverse-transform is performed for one of the two partitions,

wherein when the first indicator indicates that the current block is divided in the asymmetric form, the current block is divided into a first partition having ¼ size of the current block and a second partition having ¾ size of the current block, and

wherein locations of the first partition and the second partition are determined based on a second indicator of 1-bit included in the compressed data.
