Original Abstract Submitted

An image signal decoding method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure comprises the steps of: partitioning the current picture into a plurality of tiles; decoding partition information indicating a slice type, the partition information indicating whether a rectangular slice is to be applied; determining the number of slices in the current picture; and defining the slices using the tiles.
