Abstract

An artificial intelligence (AI) decoding apparatus includes a memory storing one or more instructions; and a processor configured to execute the one or more instructions to obtain image data generated through first encoding on a first image; obtain a second image corresponding to the first image by performing first decoding on the image data; perform pre-processing of changing a resolution of the second image, according to a pre-determined output resolution; and obtain a fourth image having the pre-determined output resolution by applying AI up-scaling based on an up-scaling deep neural network (DNN) to a third image obtained as a result of the pre-processing.
