Lifting-based multi-view image coding

—A number of lifting-based video coding schemes have been recently proposed for scalable video coding. In this paper, we present a novel multi-view image codec based on a wavelet lifting scheme. The proposed lifting scheme with disparity compensated channel filtering is very efficient in terms of compressions performance, memory requirements and implementation. We propose a number of enhancements to the basic scheme, such as hybrid prediction, adaptive weighing in update step and overlapped block disparity compensation which yield significant improvements in rate distortion performance.
