<p>The present technology relates to an encoding device and an encoding method, a decoding device and a decoding method, and a program, configured to obtain a high quality audio with less encoding amount. A number-of-sections determining feature amount calculating circuit calculates a number-of-sections determining feature amount for determining the number of divisions to divide a process target section into continuous frame sections each including a frame for which the same estimation coefficient is selected, based on sub-band signals of a plurality of sub-bands constituting an input signal. A quasi-high frequency sub-band power difference calculating circuit determines the number of continuous frame sections in the process target section based on the number-of-sections determining feature amount, selects an estimation coefficient for obtaining a high frequency component of the input signal by estimation for each continuous frame section, and generates data including a coefficient index for obtaining the estimation coefficient. A high frequency encoding circuit encodes the obtained data, and generates high frequency encoded data. The present technology can be applied to an encoding device.</p> |
