Encoder, encoding method, decoder, and decoding method
Abstract:
An encoder includes circuitry and a memory coupled to the circuitry. The circuitry, in operation, determines whether or not a ternary split process of splitting a block into three sub blocks in a first direction parallel to a first longer side of the block is allowed by comparing a size of a second shorter side of the block to a minimum threshold value. The circuitry, responsive to the ternary split process being allowed, writes, into a bitstream, a split direction parameter indicative of a splitting direction. The circuitry, in operation, splits the block into a plurality of sub blocks in a direction indicated by the split direction parameter; splits the block into a plurality of sub blocks in a second direction parallel to the second shorter side of the block when the ternary split process is not allowed; and encodes the plurality of sub blocks.
