In the disclosed multi-view image encoding / decoding method in which a frame to be encoded / decoded is divided and encoding / decoding is done to each region, first, a prediction image is generated not only for the region to be processed, but also for the already encoded / decoded regions neighboring to the region to be processed. The prediction image is generated using the same prediction method for both kinds of regions. Next, correction parameters for correcting illumination and color mismatches are estimated from the prediction image and decoded image of the neighboring regions. At this time, the estimated correction parameters can be obtained even at the decoding side, therefore, encoding them is unnecessary. Thus, by using the estimated correction parameters to correct the predicted image that was generated for the region to be processed, a corrected predicted image that can be actually used is generated.

An image encoding device includes a first prediction parameter determination section (53) for selecting, for each of prediction units belonging to a first group, a prediction parameter from a basic set; a second prediction parameter determination section (55) for selecting, for each of prediction units belonging to a second group, a prediction parameter from a reduced set (i) including at least a part of the prediction parameter(s) selected by the first prediction parameter determination section (53) and (ii) is constituted by a prediction parameter(s), the number of which is not more than the number of prediction parameters included in the basic set; and a prediction parameter encoding section (243) for encoding (i) information indicating which one of prediction parameters is selected by the first prediction parameter determination section (53) and (ii) information indicating which one of prediction parameters is selected by the second prediction parameter determination section (55).

While maintaining a high degree of freedom in choosing partition sizes and transformation sizes adapted for local characteristics of videos, the amount of metadata is decreased. A video encoding apparatus (10) divides an input video into blocks of a prescribed size and encodes the video block by block. The video encoding apparatus is provided with: a prediction parameter determining portion (102) that decides the block partition structure; a predictive image producing portion (103) that generates predictive images, partition by partition, as prescribed by the partition structure; a transform coefficient producing portion (107) which applies one of the frequency transformations included in a prescribed transformation preset to prediction residuals, i.e. the differences between predictive images and the input video; a transform restriction deriving portion (104) which generates the list of transform candidate, i.e. lists of frequency transformations that can be applied to each partition, on the basis of partition format information; and a variable-length-encoding portion (108) which, on the basis of the list of transform candidate and the transformation preset, performs variable-length encoding on transformation selection flags.

The invention discloses a defect grade judgment method for liquid crystal modules of different production lines. In the method, an upper computer is connected with a graph generator and a liquid crystal module manufacture execution system server through a network, a user achieves the liquid crystal module defect grade judgment function under the online mode through an external text editing tool according to a specific format editing defect grade initialization file, an upper computer program displays the defect grade and the defect code which are suitable for a current production line to the user to be selected by the user by analyzing a defect grade initialization file edited by the user in a customized mode, the defect grade and the defect code are not written in the upper computer program any more, and the code amount of the upper computer program is reduced.
