Abstract: An image encoder includes circuitry and a memory, wherein the circuitry, in operation, determines whether inter prediction is to be applied to a current block; in response to determining that the inter prediction is to be applied to the current block, performs a partition prediction process; and, in response to determining that the inter prediction is not to be applied, encodes the current block without using the partition prediction process. The partition prediction process includes predicting first values of a set of pixels between a first partition and a second partition in the current block, using a first motion vector for the first partition; predicting second values of the set of pixels, using a second motion vector for the second partition; weighting the first values and the second values; and generating a prediction image for the current block using the weighted first values and the weighted second values.

Abstract: An image encoder or decoder includes circuitry and a memory coupled to the circuitry. The circuitry, in operation, predicts a first set of samples for a first partition of a current picture with one or more motion vectors including a first motion vector and predicts a second set of samples for a first portion of the first partition with one or more motion vectors from a second partition different from the first partition. The samples of the first set of samples of the first portion of the first partition and of the second set of samples of the first portion of the first partition are weighted. A motion vector for the first portion of the first partition is stored which is based on one or both of the first motion vector and the second motion vector. The first partition is encoded or decoded using at least the weighted samples of the first portion of the first partition.

Abstract: An encoder includes circuitry and memory coupled to the circuitry. The circuitry: executes a second process of applying a second filter to the first image to generate a second image, not holding the second image as a reference image, holding the first image as a reference image, and displaying the second image; writes coefficients of each of one or more filter candidates that are candidates for the second filter into a bitstream, wherein the coefficients are included in a first storage location when written into the bitstream; and writes a parameter that specifies, for each image, one of the one or more filter candidates as the second filter into the bitstream, wherein the parameter is included in a second storage location when written into the bitstream, and the second storage location is different from the first storage location.

Abstract: An encoder that encodes a current block to be encoded in an image is provided. The encoder includes: processor; and memory coupled to the processor, in which, in operation, the processor: generates a first prediction image based on a motion vector, the first prediction image being an image with full-pel precision; generates a second prediction image using an interpolation filter by interpolating a value at a fractional-pel position between full-pel positions included in the first prediction image; and encodes the current block based on the second prediction image, and in the using of the interpolation filter, the interpolation filter is switched between a first interpolation filter and a second interpolation filter differing in a total number of taps from the first interpolation filter.

Abstract: An encoder includes circuitry and a memory coupled to the circuitry, wherein the circuitry, in operation, performs a partition process. The partition process includes calculating first values of a set of pixels between a first partition and a second partition in a current block, using a first motion vector for the first partition; calculating second values of the set of pixels, using a second motion vector for the second partition; and calculating third values of the set of pixels by weighting the first values and the second values. When a ratio of a width to a height of the current block is larger than 4 or a ratio of the height to the width of the current block is larger than 4, the circuitry disables the partition process.
