Abstract
A prediction device for predicting a motion vector of a coding target block in coding of a composite image formed by combining multiple viewpoint images includes: a storage unit that stores a first predicted motion vector indicating a predicted motion vector candidate; and an update unit that if a predetermined condition is met, generates a second predicted motion vector that is a vector indicating a pixel in an adjacent viewpoint, the pixel being located at a position that is same as a position of the coding target block, and stores the second predicted motion vector the storage unit.
