Abstract: In DBBP, there is a problem because of a large processing amount of a synthesis process in which two complement images are synthesized according to segmentation and a filtering process is executed.

The image synthesis section executes a filtering process based on a partition mode and the segmentation information.

Abstract: Since the size of a lookup table necessary to retain a partition pattern list is large in DMM 1 prediction, it is difficult to dispose the lookup table in a cache. For this reason, access to an external memory occurs at each time of access to the lookup table, and thus a problem may occur in that a processing speed is lowered. In the DMM 1 prediction, the lookup table for retaining a partition pattern of a first size is deleted, a partition pattern of a second size smaller than the first size is scaled to the first size, and the partition pattern of the first size is generated.

Abstract: A predicted image is generated by means of a method with which it is easy for parallel processing for a plurality of pixels to be executed, in a case where each pixel of the predicted image is derived according to a distance from a reference region and with reference to an unfiltered reference pixel. A predicted pixel value constituting the predicted image is derived by applying weighted sum in which a weighting coefficient is used with respect to a filtered predicted pixel value in a target pixel within a prediction block, and at least one or more unfiltered reference pixel values, and the weighting coefficient for the unfiltered reference pixel values is derived as a product of a reference intensity coefficient that is determined according to a prediction direction indicated by a prediction mode, and a distance weighting that monotonically decreases according to an increase in a reference distance for the target pixel.

Abstract: A prediction set determining section selects a prediction set from a prediction set group including a plurality of prediction sets having different combinations of prediction modes corresponding to different prediction directions. Further, a prediction mode determining section selects a prediction mode from the prediction set thus selected. An entropy encoding section encodes the prediction set thus selected, the prediction mode thus selected, and residual data between an input image and a predicted image formed on the basis of the prediction set and the prediction mode. This allows an image encoding device to carry out predictions from more various angles, thereby improving prediction efficiency.
