Patent ID: 11451814

Abstract:
An image decoding method may include determining whether at least one of a height and a width of a current coding unit is greater than a predetermined size, obtaining, based on whether the current coding unit is to be split into transform units, a second coded block flag from the bitstream, the second coded block flag indicating whether a block of a luma component included in the at least one transform unit includes at least one transform coefficient in the bitstream, obtaining a residual signal of the block of the luma component included in the at least one transform unit, based on the second coded block flag, reconstructing the current coding unit based on the residual signal, and reconstructing the current image including the current coding unit, based on the reconstructed current coding unit. The split shape mode may indicate at least one of whether to perform splitting, a split direction, and a split type, and the split type may correspond to binary splitting, tri splitting, and quad splitting.
