Abstract

Disclosed are an image encoding/decoding method and apparatus. The method and apparatus select at least one reference pixel line from among multiple reference pixel lines and derive a predicted value of a pixel within a current block by using the value of at least one pixel within the selected reference pixel line(s). Alternatively, the method and apparatus derive an intra prediction mode of a reconstructed pixel region on the basis of a reference pixel region of at least one reconstructed pixel region, derive an intra prediction mode of a current block on the basis of the derived intra prediction mode of the reconstructed pixel region, obtain an intra prediction block of the current block by using the derived intra prediction mode, and reconstruct the current block by summing the obtained intra prediction block and a residual block of the current block.

Claims (24)

1. A video decoding method comprising:

selecting at least one reference pixel line among a plurality of reference pixel lines, the plurality of reference pixel lines being included in a current picture including a current block;

deriving an intra prediction mode of the current block; and

generating a prediction block of the current block based on the at least one reference pixel line and the intra prediction mode of the current block,

wherein the intra prediction mode is derived as a modified intra prediction mode by resetting a first directional intra prediction mode having a first prediction direction to a second directional intra prediction mode having a second prediction direction,

wherein the second directional intra prediction mode is determined among a plurality of predetermined directional intra prediction modes.

2. The video decoding method of claim 1 ,

wherein the second prediction direction has a direction range within a 45 degree.

3. A video encoding method comprising:

selecting at least one reference pixel line among a plurality of reference pixel lines, the plurality of reference pixel lines being included in a current picture including a current block;

deriving an intra prediction mode of the current block;

generating a prediction block of the current block based on the at least one reference pixel line and the intra prediction mode of the current block; and

encoding first information for the intra prediction mode of the current block and second information for the at least one reference pixel line,

wherein the intra prediction mode is derived as a modified intra prediction mode by resetting a first directional intra prediction mode having a first prediction direction to a second directional intra prediction mode having a second prediction direction,

wherein the second directional intra prediction mode is determined among a plurality of predetermined directional intra prediction modes.

4. The video encoding method of claim 3 ,

wherein the second prediction direction has a direction range within a 45 degree.

5. A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium storing a bitstream generated by a video encoding method, the video encoding method comprising:

selecting at least one reference pixel line among a plurality of reference pixel lines, the plurality of reference pixel lines being included in a current picture including a current block;

deriving an intra prediction mode of the current block;

generating a prediction block of the current block based on the at least one reference pixel line and the intra prediction mode of the current block; and

encoding first information for the intra prediction mode of the current block and second information for the at least one reference pixel line into a bitstream,
