Abstract

In a moving picture coding device that codes a moving picture using motion compensation prediction in units of blocks acquired by dividing each picture of the moving picture, a prediction mode determiner derives motion information of a coding target block. A motion compensation predictor changes the derived motion information for the coding target block having a size smaller than or equal to a certain size when the coding target block has the size smaller than or equal to the certain size. The motion compensation predictor constructs a prediction signal of the coding target block through the motion compensation prediction using the derived motion information when the coding target block has a size larger than the certain size or using the changed motion information when the coding target block has the size smaller than or equal to the certain size.

Claims (9)

1. A moving picture decoding device that decodes a bitstream coded using motion compensation prediction in units of blocks acquired by dividing each picture of a moving picture, comprising:

a motion information deriver that derives motion information from any of blocks spatially and blocks temporally neighboring a decoding target block and stores the derived motion information without converting from bi-prediction into single prediction even if a prediction block size is smaller than a certain size; and

a motion compensation predictor that performs motion compensation prediction using the derived motion information if the prediction block size is larger than or equal to the certain size, and performs motion compensation prediction assuming the motion information as a single prediction instead of using the derived motion information if the prediction block size is smaller than the certain size even when the derived motion information is bi-prediction.

2. A moving picture decoding method of decoding a bitstream coded using motion compensation prediction in units of blocks acquired by dividing each picture of a moving picture, comprising:

a motion information deriving step of deriving motion information from any of blocks spatially and blocks temporally neighboring a decoding target block and storing the derived motion information without converting from bi-prediction into single prediction even if a prediction block size is smaller than a certain size; and

a motion compensation predicting step of performing motion compensation prediction using the derived motion information if the prediction block size is larger than or equal to the certain size, and performing motion compensation prediction assuming the motion information as a single prediction instead of using the derived motion information if the prediction block size is smaller than the certain size even when the derived motion information is bi-prediction.

3. A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium having embodied thereon a moving picture decoding program of decoding a bitstream coded using motion compensation prediction in units of blocks acquired by dividing each picture of a moving picture and causing a computer to execute:

a motion information deriving step of deriving motion information from any of blocks spatially and blocks temporally neighboring a decoding target block and storing the derived motion information without converting from bi-prediction into single prediction even if a prediction block size is smaller than a certain size; and

a motion compensation predicting step of performing motion compensation prediction using the derived motion information if the prediction block size is larger than or equal to the certain size, and performing motion compensation prediction assuming the motion information as a single prediction instead of using the derived motion information if the prediction block size is smaller than the certain size even when the derived motion information is bi-prediction.
