Abstract
A decoding method includes obtaining random access point (RAP) reference layer number information indicating a number of layers referred to for performing inter layer prediction on RAP images among current layer images and non-RAP reference layer number information indicating a number of different layers referred to for performing inter layer prediction on non-RAP images, from a video stream including images encoded for a plurality of layers, obtaining RAP reference layer identification information for a layer referred to for predicting the RAP images based on the obtained RAP reference layer number information, from the video stream, obtaining non-RAP reference layer identification information for a layer referred to for predicting the non-RAP images based on the obtained non-RAP reference layer number information, and reconstructing a RAP image and a non-RAP image based on layer images indicated by the obtained RAP reference layer identification information and the obtained non-RAP reference layer identification information.
