Abstract: Disclosed herein is a method for generating a texture map of a 3D mesh includes encoding a texture map of a 3D mesh, quantizing the encoded texture map, decoding the quantized texture map, performing rendering using the decoded texture map, and updating the texture map of the 3D mesh based on the value of a loss function.

Abstract: Disclosed are an image encoding method using a skip mode and a device using the method. The image encoding method may comprise the steps of: judging whether there is residual block data of a prediction target block on the basis of predetermined data indicating whether residual block data has been encoded; and, if there is residual block data, restoring the prediction target block on the basis of the residual block data and an intra-screen predictive value of the prediction target block. Consequently, encoding and decoding efficiency can be increased by carrying out the encoding and decoding of screen residual data only for prediction target blocks where there is a need for a residual data block in accordance with screen similarity.
