Abstract

See full text

A video encoding method for generating, based on disparity information between an already-encoded reference camera image and an encoding target camera image corresponding to the reference camera image, a disparity-compensated image by means of inter-camera image prediction; and encoding a differential image between the encoding target camera image and the disparity-compensated image. The method includes selecting, for each predetermined section unit on the differential image, one of a decoded differential image group obtained by decoding a differential image between the already-encoded camera image and the disparity-compensated image and a decoded camera image group obtained by decoding the already-encoded camera image, by determining whether or not there is a disparity-compensated image at the corresponding position, that is, whether or not the corresponding pixel in the disparity-compensated image has an effective value.
