Patent ID: 11695955

Abstract:
An image encoding device (1) includes the cross-component intra predictor (171a) generates a predicted chroma block through cross-component intra prediction in which a chroma block to be encoded is predicted by referring to, as the neighbouring decoded pixels adjacent to the chroma block, decoded luminance pixels and decoded chroma pixels, a candidate generator (181) configured to generate candidates for an orthogonal transform type to be applied to orthogonal transform processing on prediction residuals that represent errors between the predicted chroma block and the chroma block; and a transformer (121) configured to perform the orthogonal transform processing on the chroma prediction residuals by using an orthogonal transform type selected from among the candidates generated by the candidate generator (181). The candidate generator (181) generates the candidates for the orthogonal transform type, depending on whether or not positions of the neighbouring decoded pixels referred to in cross-component intra prediction are to only any one of a top, a bottom, a left, and a right of a chroma block.
