Abstract:
A moving image encoding/decoding apparatus that performs encoding/decoding while predicting a multiview moving image including moving images of a plurality of different views includes: a corresponding region setting unit that sets a corresponding region on a depth map for an encoding/decoding target region; a region dividing unit that sets a prediction region that is one of regions obtained by dividing the encoding/decoding target region; a disparity vector generation unit that generates, for the prediction region, a disparity vector for a reference view using depth information for a region within the corresponding region that corresponds to the prediction region; a motion information generation unit that generates motion information in the prediction region from the reference view motion information based on the disparity vector for the reference view; and a prediction image generation unit that generates a prediction image for the prediction region using the motion information in the prediction region.
