  • Patent number: 11973984
    Abstract: A method for decoding an image according to the present invention comprises the steps of: determining whether a second inverse transform is applied to a coding block including a plurality of sub-blocks; and applying the second inverse transform to at least one of the plurality of sub-blocks when it is determined that the second inverse transform is applied to the coding block.
