Abstract

A coding and decoding method for images or videos is provided by embodiments of the present invention to improve coding and decoding efficiency. The method includes: establishing a visual dictionary, wherein, the visual dictionary includes one or more visual words; extracting features from a specific object in an image; determining whether there is a visual word in the visual dictionary matching the specific object by using a feature matching method; obtaining the index of the visual word matched and a geometric relationship between the specific object and the visual word matched, wherein, the geometric relationship is represented by a project parameter; entropy coding the index of the visual word matched and the project parameter instead of entropy coding the specific object.
