1. A hybrid prediction apparatus for entropy encoding, the apparatus comprising: at least two predictors, each to output a prediction pattern with respect to an input image frame using a correlation between pixels of the image frame; a selection processor to acquire per-pixel errors of prediction patterns output by the at least two predictors, and to thereby select, from among the output prediction patterns, a prediction pattern having a relatively small amount of errors; and an entropy coder to perform entropy encoding of the selected prediction pattern.
