Abstract:
Provided are a method and apparatus for intra predicting an image, which generate a prediction value via linear interpolation in horizontal and vertical directions of a current prediction unit. The method includes: generating first and second virtual pixels by using at least one adjacent pixel located upper right and lower left to a current prediction unit; obtaining a first prediction value of a current pixel via linear interpolation using an adjacent left pixel located on the same line as the first virtual pixel and the current pixel; obtaining a second prediction value of the current pixel via linear interpolation using an adjacent upper pixel located on the same column as the second virtual pixel and the current pixel; and obtaining a prediction value of the current pixel by using the first and second prediction values.

Claim (Index 1):
An apparatus for intra predicting an image, comprising:\n a prediction mode determiner configured to acquire prediction mode information indicating one selected from a group comprising an inter mode and an intra mode, and intra prediction mode information indicating one selected from a group comprising directional prediction modes and a planar mode from a bitstream, and determine a prediction mode of a current block according to the prediction mode information and the intra prediction mode information; and a predictor configured to acquire reference samples including a first corner sample, a second corner sample, a first side sample, and a second side sample, the reference samples used for prediction of a current sample, and determine a prediction value of the current sample based on a weighted sum of sample values of the first corner sample, the second corner sample, the first side sample, and the second side sample, if the prediction mode of the current block is determined to be the planar mode, and restore an original value of the current sample by using the prediction value of the current sample and residual data indicating a difference between the original value and the prediction value of the current sample, wherein,\n the first corner sample is located at an intersection of a row to an upper side of the current block and a column to a right side of the current block, \n the second corner sample is located at an intersection of a row to a lower side of the current block and a column to a left side of the current block, \n the first side sample is located at an intersection of a row in which the current sample is located and a column to the left side of the current block, \n the second side sample is located at an intersection of the row to the upper side of the current block and a column in which the current sample is located, and \n the current block is predicted by determining prediction values for samples included in the current block, and wherein,\n a weight for the first corner sample is determined based on a horizontal distance between the current sample and the first side sample, \n a weight for the second corner sample is determined based on a vertical distance between the current sample and the second side sample, \n a weight for the first side sample is determined based on a distance less than a horizontal distance between the current sample and the first corner sample, and \n a weight for the second side sample is determined based on a distance less than a vertical distance between the current sample and the second corner sample.
