METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR VIDEO ENCODING USING BLOCK MERGING, METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR VIDEO DECODING USING BLOCK MERGING

摘要

Disclosed is a method of encoding videos using block merging, in which a data unit for encoding a current picture and an encoding mode for representing an encoding method including predictive coding performed for the data unit, merging into at least one adjacent data unit is determined based on at least one of a prediction mode or an encoding mode for the data unit, and prediction mode information, merging related information, and prediction related information are determined based on the merging, and encoding information in a data unit including the determined information is determined.
