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 6):
The method for encoding according to  claim 1 , wherein said current focal stack is part of a group of focal stacks captured with different viewing angles, said focal stacks of said group of focal stacks being ordered according to an orientation order of their viewing angles, and wherein said method further comprises:\n determining an inter-stack image encoding order from said orientation order and from a viewing angle, of said current focal stack, called reference viewing angle, encoding at least one pixel of an image of at least another focal stack of said group of focal stacks processed according to said inter-stack image encoding order from the reconstructed image of said current focal stack, said image of said at least another focal stack being the image selected according to an image sharpness criterion and being, called a reference image.
