Abstract
Methods and systems for light field image encoding and decoding are disclosed. According to some embodiments, scene metadata and input light field images associated with a scene are received. A first encoding operation is performed on the scene metadata and input light field images to generate reference images, reference disparity information, and an order of reference views. A second encoding operation is performed based on the reference images and reference disparity information to output light field encoded data. The light field encoded data includes the encoded reference images, the encoded reference disparity information, and the order of reference views. The light field encoded data is transmitted.
