  • IMAGE ENCODING AND DECODING METHOD AND APPARATUS USING TEXTURE SYNTHESIS
    Publication number: 20080152243
    Abstract: Provided is an image encoding/decoding method and apparatus. In the image encoding method, a portion of a texture region included in a current picture is selected as a sample texture for synthesizing the texture region and only the sample texture is encoded in place of the texture region, thereby improving the compression efficiency of encoding with respect to the texture region and thus improving the compression efficiency of encoding with respect to the entire image.
