Abstract
An image encoding device includes a first compression unit, a second compression unit, a third compression unit and an output unit. The first compression unit generates first compressed data by compressing first data associated with a reference block in an input image. The second compression unit generates second compressed data by compressing second data associated with a current compressing block in the input image when the current compressing block corresponds to a first pattern. The current compressing block is included in the reference block. The third compression unit generates third compressed data by compressing the second data when the current compressing block corresponds to one of a plurality of second patterns. The output unit outputs compressed data based on the first compressed data, the second compressed data and the third compressed data.
