Abstract

An encoder capable of properly handling an image to be encoded or decoded includes processing circuitry and memory connected to the processing circuitry. Using the memory, the processing circuitry: obtains parameters including at least one of (i) one or more parameters related to a first process for correcting distortion in an image captured with a wide angle lens and (ii) one or more parameters related to a second process for stitching a plurality of images; generates an encoded image by encoding a current image to be processed that is based on the image or the plurality of images; and writes the parameters into a bitstream including the encoded image.

Claims (9)

1. An encoder, comprising:

processing circuitry; and

memory connected to the processing circuitry,

wherein, using the memory, the processing circuitry:

generates a first picture, the first picture including a plurality of regions, the plurality of regions including a first region and a second region different from the first region;

obtains one or more parameters indicating the first region within the first picture;

performs an inter prediction process on the first picture; and

writes the one or more parameters into a bitstream, and

the inter prediction process includes a padding process in which first values of first pixels in the first region are replaced with second values of second pixels, the second pixels being provided in the second region of the first picture.
