Abstract:
There is provided a picture encoding device that encodes a picture and encodes a difference quantization parameter in a unit of a quantization coding block which is divided from the picture and is a management unit of a quantization parameter. A quantization parameter calculator derives a quantization parameter of the quantization coding block to be encoded. A prediction quantization parameter derivation unit derives a prediction quantization parameter using the quantization parameters of a plurality of quantization coding blocks which precede the quantization coding block to be encoded in order of encoding. A difference quantization parameter generator derives a difference quantization parameter of the quantization coding block to be encoded, using a difference between the quantization parameter of the quantization coding block to be encoded and the prediction quantization parameter. A first bitstream generator encodes the difference quantization parameter of the quantization coding block to be encoded.

Claim (Index 2):
A picture decoding method that decodes a picture and decodes a bitstream in which a difference quantization parameter is encoded in a unit of a quantization decoding block which is divided from the picture and is a management unit of a quantization parameter, comprising:\n a decoding step of decoding the bitstream in the unit of the quantization decoding block and extracting a difference quantization parameter of a first quantization decoding block to be decoded; a prediction quantization parameter derivation step of deriving a prediction quantization parameter using the quantization parameters of two quantization decoding blocks which precede the first quantization decoding block to be decoded in order of decoding; and a quantization parameter derivation step of adding the difference quantization parameter of the first quantization decoding block to be decoded and the prediction quantization parameter to derive the quantization parameter of the first quantization decoding block to be decoded, wherein the prediction quantization parameter derivation step derives the prediction quantization parameter using two quantization parameters: one quantization parameter of a previous quantization decoding block which immediately precedes the first quantization decoding block to be decoded in order of decoding and another quantization parameter of a quantization decoding block which precedes the previous quantization decoding block in order of decoding and is not spatially neighboring the first quantization decoding block to be decoded, wherein the decoding step decodes the difference quantization parameter in such a manner that a shorter code length is given to the difference quantization parameter with a smaller absolute value.
