Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé et un appareil de codage/décodage de données d'images. Un procédé pour décoder une image à 360 degrés comprend les étapes suivantes : réception d'un train de bits obtenu par codage d'une image à 360 degrés ; génération d'une image de prédiction en se référant à des informations de syntaxe obtenues auprès du train de bits reçu ; combinaison de l'image de prédiction générée avec une image résiduelle obtenue par déquantification et transformation inverse du train de bits en vue d'obtenir une image décodée ; et reconstruction de l'image décodée en une image à 360 degrés selon un format de projection. L'étape de génération de l'image de prédiction comprend ici les étapes suivantes : obtention d'un groupe candidat de vecteurs de mouvement à partir d'informations de mouvement incluses dans les informations de syntaxe ; dérivation d'un vecteur de mouvement de prédiction à partir du groupe candidat de vecteurs de mouvement en se basant sur des informations de sélection extraites des informations de mouvement ; et détermination d'un bloc de prédiction pour un bloc actuel à décoder, en utilisant un vecteur de mouvement final dérivé en ajoutant le vecteur de mouvement de prédiction à un vecteur de mouvement différentiel extrait des informations de mouvement.
