Moving picture coding method, moving picture coding apparatus, moving picture decoding method, moving picture decoding apparatus and moving picture coding and decoding apparatus
By the moving picture coding method and the moving picture decoding method, it is possible to improve coding efficiency. The moving picture coding apparatus includes a merge block candidate calculation unit that (i) specifies merge block candidates at merge mode, by using colpic information such as motion vectors and reference picture index values of neighbor blocks of a current block to be coded and a motion vector and the like of a collocated block of the current block which are stored in a colPic memory, and (ii) generates a combined merge block by using the merge block candidates.
1. A moving picture decoding apparatus that decodes a current block, the moving picture decoding apparatus comprising:
a processor; and
a non-transitory storage, the processor performing, using the non-transitory storage, processes including:
deriving a first motion vector candidate, the first motion vector candidate being a first motion vector that has been used to decode a first block;
deriving a second motion vector candidate, the second motion vector candidate being a second motion vector that has been used to decode a second block that is different from the first block;
generating a new candidate, the new candidate being a combination of the first motion vector candidate and the second motion vector candidate; and
decoding the current block by using a candidate from among a plurality of candidates including the new candidate.
