Image decoding device and image coding device

1. An image decoding device generating a predicted image through motion compensation prediction with reference to one or more reference images recorded on a decoded picture buffer and using the predicted image in image decoding, the image decoding device comprising:

reference picture set derivation means for deriving a reference picture set to be applied to a target picture;

reference picture list generation means for generating a reference picture list available in the target picture based on reference picture list (RPL) modification information decoded from a slice header and the reference picture set derived by the reference picture set derivation means; and

reference picture information decoding means for omitting decoding of a part of information included in the RPL modification information,

wherein the RPL modification information includes at least a reference picture list sorting presence or absence flag and a reference list sorting order, and

wherein the reference picture information decoding means omits decoding of the reference picture list sorting presence or absence flag and the reference list sorting order based on the number of current picture referable pictures.

2. The image decoding device according to claim 1 , wherein the reference picture information decoding means omits the decoding of the reference picture list sorting presence or absence flag and the reference list sorting order when the number of current picture referable pictures is 1.

3. The image decoding device according to claim 1 , wherein the number of current picture referable pictures is decoded by the reference picture information decoding means.

4. The image decoding device according to claim 2 , wherein the number of current picture referable pictures is decoded by the reference picture information decoding means.
