摘要

An image coding method includes: writing, into a coded bitstream, buffer description defining information for defining a buffer description (S101); constructing a default reference list (S102); reordering pictures included in the default reference list (S103); writing, into the coded bitstream, reference list reordering information for indicating details of the reordering (S104); and coding an image using the buffer description and a reference list resulting from the reordering (S105), and in the reference list reordering information, among the pictures, a picture to be reordered is specified using an index which is used in other processing in the image coding method.
