9. A method for three-dimensional or multi-view video encoding or decoding, the method comprising: receiving input data associated with a syntax element of a current block in a dependent view, wherein the syntax element corresponds to an IC (illumination compensation) flag or an ARP (advanced residual prediction) flag, the IC flag indicates whether illumination compensation is enabled for an associated block, and the ARP flag indicates whether advanced residual prediction is enabled for the associated block; and encoding or decoding the syntax element using CABAC (Context Adaptive Binary Arithmetic Coding), wherein no selected information associated with any neighboring block of the current block is used for determining CABAC context.
