Abstract
To suppress image degradation of a tile boundary while suppressing an increase of an amount of encoded data due to tile division. When performing a wavelet transform on a tile of interest, a wavelet transform unit performs a wavelet transform by referring to pixel data of the tile of interest and a neighboring tile that neighbors the tile of interest to obtain transformation coefficient data of a set resolution level. From transformation coefficient data obtained from the neighboring tile, the wavelet transform unit supplies a subsequent quantizing unit with transformation coefficient data of each resolution level that is closest to a boundary between the tile of interest and the neighboring tile, as well as all transformation coefficient data obtained from the tile of interest.
