IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS AND IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD

摘要

The present technique relates to an image processing apparatus and an image processing method capable of suppressing deterioration in accuracy of a predicted image and reducing the number of storable reference images. A motion prediction/compensation unit generates a predicted image of an encoding target image by using a reference image. A frame memory is, for example, a decoded picture buffer (DPB) and preferentially stores the reference image of which display order is close to that of the encoding target image. The present technique may be applied to, for example, an encoding device using a high efficiency video coding (HEVC) scheme.
