1. A prediction image generation device for generating a prediction image by performing motion compensation on a reference image, the prediction image generation device comprising:
a filter circuitry configured to act on a motion vector applied image with 1/Mac pixel accuracy obtained by acting a motion vector on the reference image, wherein the filter circuitry causes filter processing using filter coefficients mcFilter [i][k] designated by a phase i, where i is an integer of 0 or greater and Mac-1 or less, and a filter coefficient position k, where k is an integer of 0 or greater and Ntaps-1 or less, Ntaps is the number of taps to act on the motion vector applied image, and
the filter coefficients mcFilter [i][k] have a relationship of a weighted average between filter coefficients mcFilter [p][k], where p is an integer of 0 or greater and p≠i, and filter coefficients mcFilter [q][k], where q is an integer of 0 or greater and q≠i.
