Abstract

A method for decoding an image, according to the present invention, comprises the steps of: deciding a prediction mode that corresponds to a chroma component block; deciding a transform skip mode of the chroma component block from a plurality of transform skip mode candidates, according to the prediction mode that corresponds to the chroma component block; and reverse-transforming the chroma component block on the basis of the transform skip mode that is decided.

Claims (11)

1. A method of decoding a video signal having a current block to be decoded with a decoding apparatus, comprising:

obtaining residual coefficients relating to the current block from an input bitstream;

obtaining inverse-quantized residual coefficients by inverse-quantizing the residual coefficients;

determining a transform candidate set relating to the current block among a plurality of transform candidate sets including a first and second transform candidate sets, each of the transform candidate sets including one or more transform modes, the one or more transform modes including at least one of a 2D transform mode, a horizontal transform mode, a vertical transform mode or a non-transform mode, the first transform candidate sets having different type or different number of transform modes from the second transform candidate sets;

determining, based on a transform mode index specifying a transform mode relating to the current block, the transform mode relating to the current block from the determined transform candidate set, the transform mode index is signaled for each of a luma component of the current block and a chroma component of the current block;

obtaining, based on the determined transform mode, residual samples relating to the current block from the inverse-quantized residual coefficients; and

decoding the current block by using the residual samples,

wherein when the transform mode is determined to be the 2D transform mode, the residual samples are obtained by performing an inverse-transform on the inverse-quantized residual coefficients, and

wherein the inverse-transform is performed by using one of discrete cosine transform (DCT) and discrete sine transform (DST).

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein when the transform skip mode is determined to be the non-transform mode, the residual samples are obtained by scaling the inverse-quantized residual coefficients with a pre-determined value.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the scaling is performed by using a bit shift operation.
