Abstract

An image decoding device, includes a filter unit using, as an input, a decoded signal prior to the filtering process and output a filtered decoded signal. The filter unit performs clipping processing on the decoded signal prior to the filtering process such that the absolute value of a differential value between a reference pixel value and a pixel value of the decoded signal prior to the filtering process is less than or equal to a predefined threshold value, and to generate the filtered decoded signal through the linear weighted addition of the value after the clipping processing is performed and the pixel value of the decoded signal prior to the filtering process; and a large-small relationship between the threshold value for a luma signal and the threshold value for a chroma signal are defined such that the large-small relationship is unchanged when an internal bit depth is changed.
