Abstract:The feasible implementation of immersive 3D video systems entails the need for a substantial reduction in the amount of image information necessary for representation. Multiview image rendering algorithms based on depth data have radically reduced the number of images required to reconstruct a 3D scene. Nonetheless, the compression of depth maps still poses several challenges due to the particular nature and characteristics of the data. To this end, this paper outlines a depth representation technique, develop… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
