Intra prediction device, image encoding device, image decoding device and program

Abstract

An intra prediction device predicts, by intra prediction, a luminance block and a chrominance block obtained by dividing an image. The intra prediction device includes a cross-component linear model predictor configured to predict the chrominance block from a decoded luminance block at a position corresponding to a position of the chrominance block using a linear model calculated from respective luminance and chrominance reference pixels around the chrominance block. The cross-component linear model predictor includes a reference pixel position selector configured to select linear model calculation pixel positions that are positions of the reference pixels to be used to calculate the linear model based on a luminance intra prediction mode that is an intra prediction mode applied to the intra prediction of the decoded luminance block.
