Abstract
An image encoding/decoding method and apparatus are provided. An image decoding method comprises determining whether a current entry in a reference picture list structure is an inter-layer reference picture (ILRP) entry, determining whether a current layer including a current picture has a plurality of direct reference layers, based on the current entry being the ILRP entry, acquiring a layer index of the current entry for a direct reference layer list from a bitstream, based on the current layer having a plurality of direct reference layers, and determining a direct reference layer including the current entry based on the layer index. The obtaining of the layer index may be skipped based on the current layer not having a plurality of direct reference layers.
