## Abstract

According to the disclosure of the present document, scaling list data transmitted from an adaptation parameter set (APS) can be signaled through a hierarchical structure. In addition, by setting a limit on the scaling list data transmitted from the APS, it is possible to reduce the amount of data which has to be signaled for video/image coding, and facilitate implementation.
