ENCODING DEVICE, ENCODING METHOD, DECODING DEVICE, AND DECODING METHOD

摘要

The present technique relates to an encoding device, an encoding method, a decoding device, and a decoding method capable of improving encoding efficiency of a parallax image using information about the parallax image. The correction unit corrects a prediction image of a parallax image of a reference viewpoint using information about the parallax image of the reference viewpoint. The arithmetic operation unit encodes the parallax image of the reference viewpoint using the corrected prediction image. The encoded parallax image of the reference viewpoint and the information about the parallax image of the reference viewpoint are transmitted. The present technique can be applied to, for example, an encoding device of the parallax image.
