Abstract

A parallel processing starting unit 3 that partitions an inputted image into tiles each having a predetermined size, and distributes tiles obtained through the partitioning, and N tile encoding units 5 - 1 to 5 -N each of that carries out a prediction difference encoding process on a tile distributed thereto by the parallel processing starting unit 3 to generate a local decoded image are disposed, and each of N tile loop filter units 7 - 1 to 7 -N determines a filter per tile suitable for a filtering process on the local decoded image generated by the corresponding one of the tile encoding units 5 - 1 to 5 -N, and carries out the filtering process on the local decoded image by using the filter.

Claims (8)

1. A video decoding device comprising:

an encoded bit data distributor that separates encoded bit data separated from a bitstream into encoded bit data of tile;

one or more tile decoders each of which carries out a prediction difference decoding process on encoded bit data of tile separated by the encoded bit data distributor to generate a decoded image of tile; and

one or more tile filters each of which carries out a filtering process on the decoded image generated by one of the one or more tile decoders by using a filter per tile shown by a filter parameter separated from the bitstream;

wherein said device decodes a video data bitstream including encoded bit data and the filter parameter; and wherein the video decoding device includes:

a demultiplexer that demultiplexes the bitstream into the encoded bit data, filter parameters each showing a filter per a tile which is a rectangular region having a predetermined size, and partitioning control information indicating a partitioning state of an inputted image, which are multiplexed into the bitstream;

an image memory that stores a decoded image on which a filtering process is carried out; and

a decoded image storage that combines the decoded image on which the filtering process is carried out by the one or more tile filters to generate a decoded image of frame according to the partitioning control information separated by the demultiplexer, and that stores the decoded image in the image memory.
