ABSTRACT 
A video predictive decoding device comprising: a decoding unit which decodes a compressed 
data out of plural sets of compressed data obtained by encoding a plurality of divided regions, 
the compressed data comprising side information and a residual signal of a target region, which 
is a target to be decoded; a motion information reconstruction unit which reconstructs a motion 
vector used to generate a predicted signal of the target region from the side information; a 
motion information storage which stores the motion vector; a motion compensation unit which 
generates the predicted signal of the target region, based on the motion vector; and a residual 
signal reconstruction unit which reconstructs a reproduced residual signal of the target region 
from the compressed data comprising the residual signal, wherein the decoding unit decodes 
zero-th side information and first side information, wherein the zero-th side information contains 
a zero-th motion vector difference, and a zero-th motion vector predictor index used to identify, 
as a zero-th motion vector predictor, one motion vector selected from a plurality of motion 
vectors stored in the motion information storage, wherein the first side information contains a 
first motion vector predictor index used to identify, as a first motion vector predictor, one 
motion vector selected from a plurality of motion vectors stored in the motion information 
storage, wherein the motion information reconstruction unit comprises: a zero-th motion 
information reconstruction unit, which generates the zero-th motion vector predictor based on 
the zero-th motion vector predictor index, and which adds the generated zero-th motion vector 
predictor to the zero-th motion vector difference to reconstruct a zero-th motion vector; and a 
first motion information reconstruction unit, which generates the first motion vector predictor 
based on the first motion vector predictor index to reconstruct the generated first motion vector 
predictor as a first motion vector, wherein the motion compensation unit adds the predicted 
signal to the reproduced residual signal to reconstruct a pixel signal of the target region, and 
combines two signals derived from the reconstructed pixel signal based on the zero-th motion 
vector and the first motion vector respectively, to generate the predicted signal of the target
region, wherein the decoding unit is configured to further decodes, in each frame or in each 
slice, indication information to indicate whether the first side information contains a first motion 
vector difference, wherein when the indication information indicates that the first side 
information contains the first motion vector difference, the decoding unit is configured to 
decode the first motion vector difference as the first side information, wherein when the 
indication information indicates that the first side information does not contain the first motion 
vector difference, the first motion information reconstruction unit is configured to generate the 
first motion vector predictor based on the first motion vector predictor index, and reconstruct the 
generated first motion vector predictor as the first motion vector, and wherein when the 
indication information indicates that the first side information contains the first motion vector 
difference, the first motion information reconstruction unit is configured to generate the first 
motion vector predictor based on the first motion vector predictor index, and add the generated 
first motion vector predictor to the decoded first motion vector difference to reconstruct the first 
motion vector.
