METHOD FOR DECODING VIDEO SIGNAL ENCODED USING INTER-LAYER PREDICTION

摘要

A method for receiving and decoding an encoded bitstream of a first layer and an encoded bitstream of a second layer into a video signal is provided. It is determined whether or not a block temporally coincident with a target block in a picture of the first layer is present in the bitstream of the second layer. An operation for checking information (intra_base_flag and residual_pediction_flag) indicating whether or not the target block has been predicted based on data of a block in a different layer corresponding to the target block is skipped if no block temporally coincident with the target block is present in the bitstream of the second layer. This method eliminates the need for encoders to transmit unnecessary information (intra_base_flag and residual_prediction_flag) when performing inter-layer prediction using a temporally adjacent frame.
