Abstract:
A macro block size determining unit  1  determines the size of each macro block on a frame-by-frame basis. A macro block dividing unit  2  divides an inputted image into macro blocks each having the size determined by the macro block size determining unit  1.  A macro block coding unit  3  determines a coding mode for each of the macro blocks divided by the macro block dividing unit  2,  and codes pixel values in each of the macro blocks in the determined coding mode.

Claim (Index 2):
A moving image encoding apparatus, comprising:\n a rectangular region size determiner which determines a size of rectangular regions of a sequence which is a set of a plurality of continuous pictures, the size being used for each of the rectangular regions of the sequence; a rectangular region divider which divides an inputted image into rectangular regions having the size which was determined by the rectangular region size determiner; a coding mode determiner which determines a coding mode for the rectangular region; an intra prediction block divider which divides the rectangular region into intra prediction rectangular blocks, which are a unit of an intra prediction, according to the size of the rectangular regions when the determined coding mode is intra coding mode, and generates intra prediction block size information which is information of size of the intra prediction rectangular blocks; an intra prediction processor which performs an intra prediction process on each of the intra prediction rectangular blocks to obtain a predicted image; a quantization and transformation processor which obtains coefficient data by performing an orthogonal transformation and quantization process on a prediction error, the prediction error including differences between pixel values of the predicted image and pixel values of the inputted image in each of the rectangular regions; and a multiplexer which multiplexes the size determined by rectangular region size determiner, the coding mode determined by the coding mode determiner, the intra prediction block size information generated by the intra prediction block divider, and the coefficient data.
