Abstract
Medium with image decoding program effecting: extracting motion vector information, quantized DCT coefficients, and rounding method information from input information; dequantizing quantized DCT coefficients to obtain DCT coefficients; performing inverse DCT conversion on DCT coefficients to obtain an error image; synthesizing a prediction image of a currently decoded image by performing motion compensation using motion vector information, rounding method information, and previously decoded reference image; and adding prediction and error images to obtain a decoded image; performing motion compensation with half-pixel accuracy and uses bilinear interpolation to calculate intensity values of chrominance or luminance at points where no pixels exist in the reference image, the interpolation being performable using a positive or negative rounding method; wherein the interpolation uses a rounding method specified by rounding method information included in coded information of the currently decoded image; and wherein the rounding method information specifies one of a plurality of values.
