Abstract: A moving image decoding method for generating prediction images by a device is provided. First and second prediction image are generated. Bidirectional prediction gradient change prediction processing is performed by using a first shift value and difference values of horizontally neighboring samples and vertically neighboring samples in the first and second prediction images to generate a first, second, third and fourth gradient images. Motion information is derived by using the first and second prediction images, the first, second, third and fourth gradient images, a second shift value, and a third shift value. Motion compensation correction value is derived by using the motion information and the first, second, third and the fourth gradient images. The third prediction image is generated by using the first and second prediction images and the motion compensation correction value. The first, second and third shift values are derived based on a pixel bit length of eight.

Abstract: In a case of referring to information between pictures by means of inter prediction, the entire picture needs to be decoded even in a case of decoding a small region. In a case of referring to information within a picture by means of intra prediction, referring to information across a tile boundary is not possible. In a case that a pixel pointed by a sub-block level motion vector of a target block that is calculated by scaling based on an available motion vector acquired from a spatial neighboring block or a temporal neighboring block is not present within a tile sequence, a process of replacing the pixel value with a pixel value within the tile sequence is performed. In a case of referring to a pixel outside of a tile by means of intra prediction, a process of replacing the pixel value with that of a pixel within the tile is performed.
