Abstract

An image decoding device ( 31 ) includes a transform coefficient decoding unit ( 311 ) configured to decode a transform coefficient for a transform tree included in a coding unit. In the transform tree, the transform coefficient decoding unit splits a transform unit corresponding to luminance and then decodes the transform coefficient related to the luminance, and does not split the transform unit corresponding to chrominance and decodes the transform coefficient related to the chrominance.

Claims (6)

1. An image decoding device for decoding a picture for a coding node, the image decoding device comprising:

a coding unit (CU) decoding circuit configured to decode prediction unit (PU) information and a quantized prediction residual of a transform unit obtained by splitting the coding node;

a transform coefficient decoding circuit configured to decode a transform coefficient for the transform unit based on the quantized prediction residual;

a prediction image generation circuit configured to generate a prediction image based on the PU information; and

an addition circuit configured to add a prediction residual derived from the transform coefficient and the prediction image, and generate a decoded image,

wherein the CU decoding circuit decodes a split luma flag indicating whether or not a luminance transform unit is split, splits the luminance transform unit and generates splitted luminance transform units based on the split luma flag, decodes a quantized prediction residual related to a luminance by using a top left coordinates of one of the splitted luminance transform units, determines a top left coordinates of the coding node including the transform unit, and decodes a quantized prediction residual related to a chrominance by using the top-left coordinates of the coding node.
