APPARATUS FOR CODING OR DECODING INTRA IMAGE BASED ON LINE INFORMATION OF REFERENCE IMAGE BLOCK

摘要

An apparatus for coding an image is provided to effectively code the image. The apparatus for coding the image includes an input image segmentation unit to segment an input image into a plurality of image blocks including a first image block and a second image block. The apparatus also includes a waveform information generation unit to select a plurality of reference pixels from among pixels included in the first image block, generate first waveform information about the first image block based on a pixel value difference between the selected plurality of reference pixels, and generate second waveform information about the second image block based on a pixel value difference between the pixels included in the second image block. The apparatus also includes a coding unit to code an image included in the second image block based on the first waveform information and the second waveform information.

1. A method for decoding an image, the method comprising:
generating waveform information that represents differences in pixel values between pixels of a predetermined direction neighboring a target image block; generating prediction pixel values for pixels in the target image block based on the waveform information; and outputting pixel values of the pixels in the target image block based on the prediction pixel values, wherein the pixels of the predetermined direction neighboring the target image block are selected from reference image blocks neighboring the target image block, and the waveform information is generated based on pixels that are adjacent to the target image block among the pixels of the predetermined direction neighboring the target image block.
