Abstract: Disclosed are a method for determining a color difference component quantization parameter and a device using the method. Method for decoding an image can comprise the steps of: decoding a color difference component quantization parameter offset on the basis of size information of a transform unit; and calculating a color difference component quantization parameter index on the basis of the decoded color difference component quantization parameter offset. Therefore, the present invention enables effective quantization by applying different color difference component quantization parameters according to the size of the transform unit when executing the quantization.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are a method and apparatus for image encoding and decoding using prediction based on a block shape. Whether a prediction mode is available for a target block is determined. The determination is performed based on the shape of the target block. When the prediction mode is determined to be unavailable for the target block, signaling related to the prediction mode may be omitted, and determination of an additional prediction mode is performed. When the prediction mode is determined to be available for the target block, information indicating whether the prediction mode is to be used for the target block is signaled.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are a method, an apparatus, and a storage medium for image encoding/decoding using geometric partitioning. A target block may be geometrically partitioned, and multiple partitioned regions may be generated from geometric partitioning. Each partitioned region may have a non-square and a non-rectangular shape. Different prediction schemes may be applied to different partitioned regions. The different prediction schemes for multiple partitioned regions may be signaled as explicit information, and may be derived using information about a coding parameter for the target block or the like.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are a method, an apparatus and a storage medium for image encoding/decoding. For efficient image compression, efficient syntax is required. Pieces of information required for image decoding may be structurally or semantically associated with each other. Based on this association, whether signaling of one piece of information is to be performed may be determined based on another piece of information. Further, based on this association, the signaling order or priority of multiple pieces of information may be determined. Depending on this determination, based on the number of subpictures present in a picture in high-level syntax, the number of slices present in the picture may be selectively signaled.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are a method, an apparatus, and a storage medium for image encoding/decoding using geometric partitioning. Partitioning of a block may be determined using directionality in a block. A straight line is detected in the block, some of partitioning methods available for the block are excluded depending on the type of the detected straight line, and only the remaining partitioning methods are limited to a target of selection for encoding and/or decoding on the target block. Further, the mode of a geometric partitioning mode may be determined using directionality in the block. A straight line is detected in the block, some of available modes of a geometric partitioning mode are excluded depending on the type of the detected straight line, and the remaining modes are limited to the target of selection for encoding and/or decoding on the target block.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are a method, apparatus and storage medium for image encoding/decoding using a reference picture. A picture is divided into multiple sub-pictures. The sub-pictures of the picture share a reference picture list. In order to determine sub-pictures that share the reference picture list, specific information is signaled from an encoding apparatus to a decoding apparatus. For each sub-picture that does not share a reference picture list for an additional sub-picture, a reference picture list for the sub-picture is separately configured.
