Abstract

An image decoding method performed by a decoding device, according to the present document, comprises the steps of: receiving a bitstream including residual information of a current block; deriving a specific number of context-encoding bins for context syntax elements for a current sub-block of the current block; decoding the context syntax elements for the current sub-block included in the residual information on the basis of the specific number; deriving transform coefficients for the current sub-block on the basis of the decoded context syntax elements; deriving residual samples for the current block on the basis of the transform coefficients; and generating a reconstructed picture on the basis of the residual samples.
