<p>Provided is a method and the like for efficiently compressing information by removing signal correlations more effectively according to local characteristics of a 4:4:4 format video signal to be coded. An image coding device includes: a signal analysis unit for obtaining, for a signal of each of the plurality of color components belonging to the first region, an average in a unit of a second region obtained by dividing the first region, and obtaining an average separated signal corresponding to the second region; an average signal coding unit for applying, independently for the each of the plurality of color components, prediction coding to an average signal formed of the average obtained in the unit of the second region obtained by dividing the first region; and an average separated signal coding unit for transforming the average separated signals of the plurality of color components, which are obtained in the unit of the second region obtained by dividing the first region, by switching among a plurality of inter-color-component transform methods provided, and coding the transformed average separated signals independently of the average signal coding unit, in which the average separated signal coding unit outputs information indicating selected inter-color-component transform methods to the bit stream as a part of coded data.</p> |
