Abstract

A method of decoding an encoded data stream representing at least one image subdivided into blocks. The method includes, for a current block of the image, and for each of at least two prediction modes available to predict the current block, obtaining a predictive block associated with the available mode; building a list having at least one of the available modes; for at least one mode included in the list, called a current mode, determining a distance measurement between the predictive block associated with the current mode and the other predictive blocks associated with the other available modes and obtained for the current block; modifying the list modified as a function of the determined measurement; decoding information identifying, for the current block, a prediction mode from the modified list from the encoded data stream; and rebuilding the current block from the predictive block associated with the identified prediction mode.
