IMAGE PROCESSING DEVICE AND METHOD, AND RECORDING MEDIUM

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To enable noise removal depending on an image or a bit rate.SOLUTION: A low-pass filter setting part 93 sets a filter coefficient corresponding to intra-prediction mode information and a quantization parameter among filter coefficients stored in an incorporated filter coefficient memory 94. An adjacent pixel setting part 81 performs filter processing to an adjacent pixel value of a target block from a frame memory 72 by using the filter coefficient set by the low-pass filter setting part 93. A prediction image generation part 82 performs intra-prediction by using the adjacent pixel value subjected to the filter processing from the adjacent pixel setting part 81 to generate a prediction image. This invention can be applied to an image encoding device encoding by an H.264/AVC system, for example.
