Abstract
A video image encoding device includes a memory and a processor. The processor is configured to determine a noise distribution within a target image to be encoded and included in a video image. The processor may limit sizes of blocks to be used for video image encoding of the target image to one or more sizes among multiple selectable sizes when it is determined that the noise distribution within the target image to be encoded is a predetermined noise distribution. The processor may also encode the target image by executing the video image encoding using the blocks of the one or more sizes.
