Abstract: An encoding apparatus extracts features of an image by applying multiple padding operations and multiple downscaling operations to an image represented by data and transmits feature information indicating the features to a decoding apparatus. The multiple padding operations and the multiple downscaling operations are applied to the image in an order in which one padding operation is applied and thereafter one downscaling operation corresponding to the padding operation is applied. A decoding method receives feature information from an encoding apparatus, and generates a reconstructed image by applying multiple upscaling operations and multiple trimming operations to an image represented by the feature information. The multiple upscaling operations and the multiple trimming operations are applied to the image in an order in which one upscaling operation is applied and thereafter one trimming operation corresponding to the upscaling operation is applied.
