Abstract

　La présente invention concerne un dispositif et un procédé de décodage, ainsi qu'un dispositif et un procédé de codage, susceptibles d'améliorer le rendement de codage d'un codage extensible de chrominance. Une unité de suréchantillonnage effectue un suréchantillonnage sur un signal de chrominance d'une image de base sur la base d'un mode de prédiction intra du signal de chrominance de l'image de base. Une unité d'addition décode des données codées d'une image d'enrichissement en utilisant l'image de base dont le signal de chrominance a été suréchantillonné par l'unité de suréchantillonnage. La présente invention peut être appliquée, par exemple, dans un dispositif de décodage qui décode des images qui ont codées en utilisant un codage extensible de chrominance.
