  • Patent number: 11222414
    Abstract: A second block to be encoded after a first block, from among a plurality of blocks obtained by recursively dividing an image region in accordance with quadtree spatial splitting, is specified based on a size of the first block. The second block is encoded.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10834421
    Abstract: Encoding information associated with encoding is acquired for each of a plurality of blocks that are obtained by recursively dividing an image region by quadtree spatial splitting. The encoding information of a target block and sub-blocks that belong to the target block if the image region is divided into units of the sub-blocks that are each smaller than the block are stored in a memory in association with each other. Encoding information that is associated with an adjacent sub-block that is adjacent to a first block among the sub-blocks that belong to a second block that is adjacent to the first block in the image region is acquired from the memory. Then, an encoding process is performed using this acquired encoding information and encoding information of the first block.
