  • Publication number: 20220417552
    Abstract: A video decoding apparatus is provided for decoding a sequence of pictures, some of which have different resolutions. The apparatus decodes, from a high-level syntax structure of the sequence, a first syntax element for specifying a reference size of pictures referring to the high-level syntax structure and a second syntax element for specifying a picture size scaled from the reference size of the picture referring to the high-level syntax structure. The apparatus predicts a current block, by modifying a sample position in a reference picture indicated by a motion vector of the current block based on the first and second syntax elements.

  • Publication number: 20220295068
    Abstract: Disclosed are a method and an apparatus for efficiently applying a transform skip mode to a transform block. According to an embodiment of the present invention, a video decoding apparatus determines, based on transform skip information associated with a current block, the transform skip information being decoded from a bitstream, whether a subblock for which transform is skipped and one or more subblocks to which transform is applied are included in the current block. When determining that the current block includes the subblock for which the transform is skipped and the one or more subblocks to which the transform is applied are included in the current block, the video decoding apparatus decodes a first residual subblock using a decoding procedure not involving inverse transform for the subblock for which the transform is skipped, and decodes one or more second residual subblocks using a decoding procedure involving the inverse transform for the one or more subblocks to which the transform is applied.
