Abstract:
A method of dividing an input image signal into pixel blocks, and performing inter-prediction on the divided pixel blocks. This method includes selecting predicted motion information from a motion information buffer storing motion information in an encoded region, and predicting motion information of an encoding target block by using the predicted motion information. The method further includes acquiring representative motion information from a plurality of items of motion information in an encoded region in accordance with first information indicating a method of selecting the predicted motion information, thereby obtaining only the representative motion information.

Claim (Index 2):
A method performed at least partially by electronic circuitry, comprising:\n inputting encoded data comprising at least a target block in a first frame; decoding a merge flag specifying whether at least a motion vector of an inter prediction mode is inferred from a merging block; deriving a first candidate motion vector from at least one neighboring block of the target block, when the merge flag specifies that at least the motion vector of the inter prediction mode is inferred from the merging block; deriving a second candidate motion vector of a collocated block in a second frame different from the first frame, the collocated block determined according to a position of the target block, when the merge flag specifies that at least the motion vector of the inter prediction mode is inferred from the merging block; decoding a merge index specifying the merging block from the at least one neighboring block and the collocated block; and deriving a first motion vector for the target block from any one of the first candidate motion vector and the second candidate motion vector according to the merge index.
