While maintaining a high degree of freedom in choosing partition sizes and transformation sizes adapted for local characteristics of videos, the amount of metadata is decreased. A video encoding apparatus (10) divides an input video into blocks of a prescribed size and encodes the video block by block. The video encoding apparatus is provided with: a prediction parameter determining portion (102) that decides the block partition structure; a predictive image producing portion (103) that generates predictive images, partition by partition, as prescribed by the partition structure; a transform coefficient producing portion (107) which applies one of the frequency transformations included in a prescribed transformation preset to prediction residuals, i.e. the differences between predictive images and the input video; a transform restriction deriving portion (104) which generates the list of transform candidate, i.e. lists of frequency transformations that can be applied to each partition, on the basis of partition format information; and a variable-length-encoding portion (108) which, on the basis of the list of transform candidate and the transformation preset, performs variable-length encoding on transformation selection flags.

This invention corrects a motion-compensated image by a method suitable for the local characteristics of the moving image, while preventing an increase in an amount of encoded data. A moving image encoding device of this invention includes three motion-compensated image correcting sections (11, 12, 13) employing respective different correction methods. The moving image encoding device is configured so as to be capable of selecting one of motion-compensated images (109) corrected by the respective correction sections, the selected one of the motion-compensated images (109) being used as a predicted image (106).

A moving image encoder includes a luminance variation detection/compensation section (127). The luminance variation detection/compensation section (127) includes: a reference block surrounding image preparing section (140); a target block surrounding image preparing section (141); a luminance variation compensated image preparing section (142) for compensating for a luminance variation between frames in accordance with a result of comparison between pixels in a reference block surrounding area and those in a target block surrounding area; a luminance variation determining section (144); and a predicted image selecting switch (143). This enables the moving image encoder and a moving image decoder to compensate local luminance variations between frames while minimizing an increase in additional information (side information).

An adaptive offset filter (60) adds an offset to the pixel value of each pixel forming an input image. The adaptive offset filter (60) refers to offset-type specifying information, sets offset attributes for a subject unit area of the input image, decodes an offset having a bit width corresponding to an offset value range included in the set offset attributes, and adds the offset to the pixel value of each pixel forming the input image.

A video encoding device includes a side information determination section and a side information encoding section. The side information determination section sets a quantization parameter for each macroblock in such a manner that a difference between quantization parameters for each pair of macroblocks with successive encoding orders is equal to one of n difference values, and transforms the difference into one of n indices with respect to each pair. The side information encoding section generates a binary sequence having a length corresponding to the size of the absolute value of the index. The total of absolute values of the n indices is smaller than the total of absolute values of the n difference values.

An image encoding apparatus of the present invention includes a TM prediction section (105) that generates a predicted image for each of prediction units. This TM prediction section (105) uses, as a template, a rectangular region on the decoded image, which rectangular region faces a longer side of a subject rectangular region, and searches for a region having a highest correlation with the template out of regions on a decoded image obtained by parallel shifting a rectangular region in a longer side direction, the rectangular region facing a longer side of the template opposite to a side of the template that faces the subject rectangular region, to generate the predicted image on the subject rectangular region. This allows for accomplishing an image encoding apparatus having high encoding efficiency, even in a case in which an image to be encoded includes an edge whose curvature varies.
