Abstract

An image decoding method performed by a decoding device, according to the present document, comprises the steps of: obtaining image information through a bitstream; and generating a reconstructed picture on the basis of the image information.

Claims (33)

1. An image decoding method performed by a decoding apparatus, the method comprising:

obtaining image information through a bitstream; and

generating a reconstructed picture based on the image information,

wherein obtaining the image information comprises:

obtaining a flag for whether one chroma quantization parameter (QP) mapping table is signaled and applied for chroma components, wherein the chroma components include a Cb component, a Cr component, and a joint CbCr component; and

obtaining chroma quantization parameter data of at least one chroma QP mapping table for the chroma components based on the flag,

wherein the chroma quantization parameter data includes a syntax element for the number of points in the chroma QP mapping table, a syntax element for a delta value used to derive an input coordinate of a target point of the chroma QP mapping table, and a syntax element for a delta value used to derive an output coordinate of the target point of the chroma QP mapping table,

wherein, based on a value of the flag being equal to 1, the one chroma QP mapping table is signaled and applied for the Cb component, the Cr component, and the joint CbCr component, and wherein chroma quantization parameters for the Cb component, the Cr component, and the joint CbCr component are derived based on the one chroma QP mapping table, and

wherein, based on the value of the flag being equal to 0, a plurality of chroma QP mapping tables including each chroma QP mapping table for each of the Cb component, the Cr component, and the joint CbCr component are signaled, and wherein the chroma quantization parameters for the Cb component, the Cr component, and the joint CbCr component are derived based on each chroma QP mapping table for each of the Cb component, the Cr component, and the joint CbCr component.

2. An image encoding method performed by an encoding apparatus, the method comprising:

encoding image information; and

generating a bitstream including the image information,

wherein encoding the image information comprises:

generating a flag for whether one chroma quantization parameter (QP) mapping table is signaled and applied for chroma components, wherein the chroma components include a Cb component, a Cr component, and a joint CbCr component; and

generating chroma quantization parameter data of at least one chroma QP mapping table for the chroma components based on the flag,

wherein the chroma quantization parameter data includes a syntax element for the number of points in the chroma QP mapping table, a syntax element for a delta value used to derive an input coordinate of a target point of the chroma QP mapping table, and a syntax element for a delta value used to derive an output coordinate of the target point of the chroma QP mapping table,

wherein, based on a value of the flag being equal to 1, the one chroma QP mapping table is signaled and applied for the Cb component, the Cr component, and the joint CbCr component, and wherein chroma quantization parameters for the Cb component, the Cr component, and the joint CbCr component are derived based on the one chroma QP mapping table, and

wherein, based on the value of the flag being equal to 0, a plurality of chroma QP mapping tables including each chroma QP mapping table for each of the Cb component, the Cr component, and the joint CbCr component are signaled, and wherein the chroma quantization parameters for the Cb component, the Cr component, and the joint CbCr component are derived based on each chroma QP mapping table for each of the Cb component, the Cr component and the joint CbCr component.

3. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a bitstream generated by a method, the method comprising:

encoding image information; and

generating the bitstream including the image information,

wherein encoding the image information comprises:

generating a flag for whether one chroma quantization parameter (QP) mapping table is signaled and applied for chroma components, wherein the chroma components include a Cb component, a Cr component, and a joint CbCr component; and

generating chroma quantization parameter data of at least one chroma QP mapping table for the chroma components based on the flag,

wherein the chroma quantization parameter data includes a syntax element for the number of points in the chroma QP mapping table, a syntax element for a delta value used to derive an input coordinate of a target point of the chroma QP mapping table, and a syntax element for a delta value used to derive an output coordinate of the target point of the chroma QP mapping table,

wherein, based on a value of the flag being equal to 1, the one chroma QP mapping table is signaled and applied for the Cb component, the Cr component, and the joint CbCr component, and wherein chroma quantization parameters for the Cb component, the Cr component, and the joint CbCr component are derived based on the one chroma QP mapping table,
