| Summary: | An image coding apparatus includes: an entropy coding unit for outputting code data based on control information for every coding pass; a rate control information extracting unit for judging both a continuation and an end of the coding pass based on a calculation result of a distortion and a code amount, which are required in a rate control; and a unit for extracting the code data up to the coding end pass based on control information. The rate control information extracting unit includes: calculation units for calculating both a distortion and a code amount produced by coding each of the coding passes; another calculation unit for calculating a slope based on a relationship between the distortion and the code amount, and a coding pass conducting unit for outputting control information based on a slope, a total code amount of all components, and a total code amount of a specific component. |
