A simplified Y/C separation circuit in which, a plurality of luminance signals are calculated for the subject pixel based on an NTSC signal of the subject pixel and NTSC signals of pixels that are close to the subject pixel spatially or temporally. Correlations between the plurality of luminance signals are obtained in a difference circuit and a comparison circuit. In a classification circuit, classification is performed, that is, the subject pixel is classified as belonging to a certain class, based on the correlations between the plurality of luminance signals. Prediction coefficients corresponding to the class of the subject pixel are read out from a prediction coefficients memory section. The RGB luminance signals of the subject pixel are then determined by calculating prescribed linear first-order formulae.
