Abstract
The present invention relates to a method for encoding/decoding a still image or a video based on a polygon unit and an apparatus for supporting the same. Particularly, a method for encoding an image based on a polygon unit may include partitioning an input image by a unit of block, determining a position of at least one point within the block, determining a position of at least one point in each side of the block, partitioning the block into at least one polygon unit using a vertex of the block, at least two points among the points determined in the side of the block, and a point determined within the block and coding the input image by a unit of the polygon unit.
