Field: Audio-visual technology (Electrical engineering)
Classification: CPC H | IPC H

Claim 0:
1. A method for decoding an image, the method comprising:
constructing a coding unit group including at least one of a plurality of coding units divided from the image;
obtaining coding information of the coding unit group; and
decoding at least one of the plurality of coding units included in the coding unit group by using the obtained coding information,
wherein, the coding information of the coding unit group indicates a prediction mode of the plurality of coding units,
wherein the plurality of coding units are decoded based on the coding information of the coding unit group,
wherein the prediction modes of the plurality of coding units included in the coding unit group are determined to be an identical prediction mode,
wherein the coding information indicates that the identical prediction mode of the plurality of coding units in the coding unit group is an intra prediction mode,
wherein the coding information is determined based on a size of the coding unit group, and
wherein the plurality of coding units constructing the coding unit group have a continuous coding order.
