PICTURE CODING APPARATUS AND PICTURE DECODING APPARATUS

摘要

The present invention provides a picture coding apparatus which can reduce a load in decoding. A picture coding apparatus (200) includes: a motion estimation unit (201) and a motion compensation unit (202) which codes each picture according to a picture type of the picture; an information generation unit (213) which generates a map that indicates a still picture sequence in a random access unit which includes a plurality of coded pictures; and a variable length coding unit (211) which writes, into the random access unit, the map that is generated by the information generation unit (213).
