Abstract
An encoding method includes encoding a difference between an input pixel included in input image data and a predicted pixel obtained by predicting the input pixel, storing a decoded pixel obtained by decoding the encoded difference and adding the predicted pixel to the decoded difference, in a case where the input image data is compound image data including different images with a line period of at least two lines, determining a direction from a decoded pixel that is included in a second decoded pixel, a third decoded pixel, and fourth decoded pixels stored and that has high correlation with a first decoded pixel, toward the first decoded pixel as a prediction direction, and selecting a decoded pixel in accordance with the determined prediction direction, and output the decoded pixel as the predicted pixel.
