==METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR ENCODING/DECODING IMAGE, ON BASIS OF AVAILABLE SLICE TYPE INFORMATION FOR GDR OR IRAP PICTURE, AND RECORDING MEDIUM STORING BITSTREAM - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17916724 titled 'METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR ENCODING/DECODING IMAGE, ON BASIS OF AVAILABLE SLICE TYPE INFORMATION FOR GDR OR IRAP PICTURE, AND RECORDING MEDIUM STORING BITSTREAM

==Simplified Explanation==

The patent application describes an image encoding/decoding method and apparatus. It focuses on the image decoding method, which involves determining the allowed slice types for a current picture and decoding the current block based on the allowed slice type.

* The method determines whether an inter slice type is allowed for the current picture.
* It also determines whether an intra slice type is allowed for the current picture, based on the inter slice type being allowed.
* The current block is then decoded based on the slice type allowed for the current picture.
* The determination of whether the inter slice type is allowed is based on the picture type of the current picture and the ability of the current layer to use inter-layer prediction.

== Potential Applications ==
* This technology can be applied in various image and video encoding/decoding systems.
* It can be used in multimedia applications, such as video streaming, video conferencing, and video surveillance.
* It can improve the efficiency and quality of image and video compression algorithms.

== Problems Solved ==
* The method solves the problem of determining the allowed slice types for a current picture in image decoding.
* It addresses the challenge of efficiently decoding image blocks based on the determined slice type.
* It solves the issue of determining whether inter-layer prediction can be used based on the picture type and layer.

== Benefits ==
* The method allows for more efficient and accurate image decoding.
* It improves the overall performance of image and video encoding/decoding systems.
* It enables better compression and transmission of images and videos, leading to reduced bandwidth requirements and improved visual quality.


==Original Abstract Submitted==

An image encoding/decoding method and apparatus are provided. An image decoding method may comprise determining whether an inter slice type is allowed for a current picture including a current block, determining whether an intra slice type is allowed for the current picture, based on the inter slice type being allowed for the current picture, and decoding the current block based on a slice type allowed for the current picture. Whether the inter slice type is allowed for the current picture may be determined based on a picture type of the current picture and whether a current layer including the current picture is able to use inter-layer prediction.
