According to one embodiment, an image encoding apparatus performs encoding according to coefficient information whose probability distribution differs due to a prediction method. The image encoding apparatus includes a plurality of probability estimators provided for a plurality of prediction directions of intra-picture prediction and configured to estimate occurrence probabilities of coefficient information respectively, a switch to select a probability estimator according to information of a prediction direction used for intra-picture prediction, and a variable length encoder to encode coefficient information according to occurrence probability of coefficient information provided from a probability estimator selected by the switch.
