Abstract: An encoder: generates, in an inter prediction mode, a first prediction image of a current block to be processed, based on a derived motion vector; and generates a final prediction image of the current block by applying an update process to the first prediction image. Candidates for the update process include a first process and a second process. The first process is a BDOF process. The second process is a process of mixing the first prediction image with a second prediction image generated in intra prediction for the current block. In the applying of the update process, the first process and the second process are mutually exclusively applied.
