Abstract
An image processing apparatus divides a plurality of difference images that are based on addition and subtraction between a plurality of parallax images, and a composite image that is based on addition between a plurality of parallax images, into a plurality of sub-bands including a sub-band that includes high-frequency components and a sub-band that does not include high-frequency components. When encoding the plurality of difference images and the composite image, as for the plurality of difference images, the image processing apparatus encodes data of the sub-band that includes high-frequency components, and, as for the composite image, the image processing apparatus encodes data of the plurality of sub-bands.
