Abstract
A moving image encoding apparatus includes one or more processors configured to calculate encoding costs regarding each of a plurality of blocks having different block sizes on the basis of differences between original images of the plurality of blocks and specific prediction images of the plurality of blocks respectively wherein the plurality of blocks is defined by recursively dividing an encoding target image included in a moving image, perform a selection of a first block size in a first hierarchy among the plurality of hierarchies by comparing the encoding costs with each other, perform a selection of a first intra-prediction mode for a first block having the first block size, and encode the first block on the basis of a difference between a first prediction image of the first block generated by the first intra-prediction mode and a first original image of the first block.
