A converting and encoding unit(133) performs a DCT(Discrete Cosine Transform) of the non boundary area signal. A quantization unit(135) quantizes the DCT-converted non-boundary area signal in a frequency domain. A spatial area quantization unit(137) quantizes the boundary area signal in a space area.
Abstract:
PURPOSE: A method and an apparatus for adaptive in-loop filtering to compensate an encoding mode for video encoding and decoding in consideration of an encoding mode of a region are provided to improve an encoding performance in consideration of an encoding mode for a region to which a filter is applied and minimize the overhead resulting from the consideration of the encoding mode. CONSTITUTION: A pixel of a restoration image from which block distortion is removed is compared with a set encoding mode(510). If the pixel corresponds to the encoding mode, a filter coefficient corresponding to the pixel is calculated(520). Based on the filter coefficient, an adaptive in-loop filtered recovery image is generated by performing a filtering operation for the restored image from which the block distortion is removed(530).

An intra estimator(110) uses the encoded ambience information of the current block and the predicted block is created to the prediction mode. An offset correction unit(140) generates the prediction block.
