The proposed algorithm applies the disparity estimation and compensation with the lifting scheme. It is very efficient in terms of compressions performance, memory requirements and fast computation. To get the highest multiview image coding efficiencies, two hybrid predictions are proposed; one for effective compression performance and one for compromising when more exact disparity values are required. Moreover, an adaptive weighing in update step and overlapped block disparity compensation are included to yield significant improvements in rate distortion performance. Experimental results show image quality gains of up to 2 dB and 1 dB against using well established methods such as the block-matching Haar and 5/3 wavelet lifting respectively.10.2312/vvg.2005100537-44
