A prediction method, apparatus, and a computer storage medium for decoding, the method includes: acquiring reference samples adjacent to at least one side of a decoding block; determining a reference point from the at least one side and determining reference sample positions to be selected corresponding to the at least one side according to a preset number of samples; selecting reference samples corresponding to the reference sample positions to be selected from the reference samples based on the reference sample positions to be selected; and performing prediction decoding on the decoding block based on the selected reference samples.
