Abstract
A method of dividing an input image signal into pixel blocks, and performing inter-prediction on the divided pixel blocks. This method includes selecting predicted motion information from a motion information buffer storing motion information in an encoded region, and predicting motion information of an encoding target block by using the predicted motion information. The method further includes acquiring representative motion information from a plurality of items of motion information in an encoded region in accordance with first information indicating a method of selecting the predicted motion information, thereby obtaining only the representative motion information.
