Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of data processing, in particular to an encoding method and device, and a decoding method and device. Background technique [0002] In the existing video image encoding process, the encoder needs to perform spatial transformation on the original image block data or the predicted image block difference data, quantize the transformation coefficients, and then perform entropy encoding on the quantized coefficients. The decoding end performs an inverse quantization operation on the coefficients obtained by entropy decoding, reconstructs the transformation coefficients, and then performs an inverse transformation operation to obtain the original image block data or image block difference data. [0003] In order to perform inverse quantization at the decoder, the decoder needs to obtain the quantization step size (QStep) used in the quantization process at the encoder. Therefore, the encoder needs to write the adop...
