Abstract
To improve the coding efficiency of intra-frame prediction of CU obtained by picture split. The present disclosure varies, based on the type of intra-frame prediction mode and/or the frequency of occurrence, the method of deriving a list used in estimation of the intra-frame prediction mode, and the binarization method in a case of entropy coding the intra-frame prediction mode.
Claims9
An entropy coding apparatus for entropy coding an intra prediction mode used for an intra prediction of a target block, wherein
- the intra prediction mode is classified in a first intra prediction mode using a variable length code and a second intra prediction mode using a fixed length code,
- the entropy coding apparatus comprising:
- a memory;
- and
- a processor, wherein the processor configured to perform steps of:
- coding a flag to indicate whether a target intra prediction mode is the first intra prediction mode or the second intra prediction mode;
- coding in the first intra prediction mode to either code the first prediction mode, or code the first prediction mode after having coded a prefix;
- and
- fixed length coding the second intra prediction mode.
