Abstract
The present disclosure relates to an image processing apparatus and an image processing method that are capable of improving coding efficiency at the time when a prediction using a correlation within a screen is performed. A predicted vector generation section sets, at a time of encoding of a current motion vector of a current block for a prediction using a correlation within a screen, a candidate block to not available and generates a predicted vector of the current motion vector by using a reference motion vector, the reference motion vector being referred to when the predicted vector of the current motion vector is generated. A difference vector generation section generates a difference vector between the current motion vector and the predicted vector generated by the predicted vector generation section. The present disclosure can be applied to, for example, an encoding apparatus.
