Abstract:
A method for encoding a current focal stack is disclosed that comprises a set of images focused at a different focalization distance from one image to another. According to present disclosure, the method comprises: —encoding ( 31 ) information representing an image of the current focal stack, the image being selected in said current focal stack according to an image sharpness criterion, and reconstructing the image into a reconstructed image; —encoding ( 32 ) at least another image of the current focal stack by prediction from at least the reconstructed image.

Claim (Index 9):
The method for encoding according to  claim 6 , wherein said group of focal stacks is captured at a reference instant t 0 , and is a part of a sequence further comprising at least one other group of focal stacks captured at an instant t, said method further comprises, encoding at least one pixel of a reference image of a focal stack, captured with said reference value of viewing angle, of said at least one other group of focal stacks, captured at an instant t, of said sequence of group of focal stacks, by using a temporal prediction performed from the reconstructed image of said current focal stack captured at said reference instant t 0 .
