The present disclosure relates to signaling of sample adaptive offset (SAO) parameters determined to minimize an error between an original image and a reconstructed image in video encoding and decoding operations. An SAO decoding method includes obtaining context-encoded leftward SAO merge information and context-encoded upward SAO merge information from a bitstream of a largest coding unit (MCU); obtaining SAO on/off information context-encoded with respect to each color component, from the bitstream; if the SAO on/off information indicates to perform SAO operation, obtaining absolute offset value information for each SAO category bypass-encoded with respect to each color component, from the bitstream; and obtaining one of band position information and edge class information bypass-encoded with respect to each color component, from the bitstream.

Abstract:
A method of determining an offset includes dividing a current image into a plurality of blocks, determining a category of pixels in each of the plurality of blocks based on values of neighboring pixels, determining an offset value for pixels belonging to the category, and adjusting the offset value based on characteristics of the category and a background pixel value of each of the pixels. The offset value is an average of differences between values of original images and restored images of pixels belonging to one category. The background pixel value is an average of values of pixels in a background pixel block to which the pixels belong among background pixel blocks divided to calculate a background pixel value.
