Abstract
A method and apparatus for encoding/decoding an image are provided. The method includes partitioning an image into a plurality of areas, allocating the partitioned plurality of areas to views of multi-view image sequences, and encoding the allocated plurality of areas. By doing so, the method can efficiently encode a large-screen image or a high-pixel image, without using a separate codec.
