Abstract:
1. A video encoding method comprising: determining a size of a current block to be encoded and encoding information on the size of the current block into a bitstream; dividing the current block of the determined size into one or more blocks; and encoding each of the blocks divided from the current block, wherein the encoding of each of the blocks comprises: determining a prediction type of a block divided from the current block, among an inter-prediction type and an intra-prediction type; encoding information on the prediction type of the block divided from the current block; and encoding the block divided from the current block by using the prediction type corresponding thereto, wherein the information on the size of the current block includes a first information on a minimum block size, and a second information on a difference between the determined size of the current block and the minimum block size, and wherein the second information is represented as a value of log
