摘要:
Multi-layer dependencies are signaled in an efficient way for a multi-view video stream(1). Coding or decoding relationship information defining coding or decoding dependencies is represented inbit-efficient syntax code, preferably through usage of hierarchical layer dependencies using layer indices for representing layer dependencies.

The embodiments use prediction weights in connection with predictive encoding and decoding of a depth map in the form of a frame (10) with pixels (11) having pixel values representing distances between a camera (40) and objects. The prediction weight is calculated based on depth clipping plane parameter values associated with the frame (10) and with a reference frame (20, 30) based on which pixels of the frame (10) are encoded and decoded. Using depth clipping plane parameter values when calculating prediction weights, improves coding efficiency of depth map coding and decoding.
摘要:
An auxiliary information map (10) is upsampled to form an upsampled auxiliary information map (20). Multiple reference pixels (23) in the upsampled auxiliary information map (20) are selected for a current pixel (21) in the upsampled auxiliary information map (20) based on texel values of texels in an associated texture (30). An updated pixel value is calculated for the current pixel (21) based on the pixel values of the selected reference pixels (23).
摘要:
A technique for encoding and decoding data pertaining to multiple video views is presented. A method embodiment of the encoding technique comprises the steps of providing first picture stream belonging to a first view and performing a first encoding operation to encode a picture of the first picture stream. The first encoding operation is based on a single-view video codec and provides encoder state information relevant for the encoding of another picture of the first picture stream. Also provided is a second picture stream belonging to a second video view. A second encoding operation is performed to encode a picture of the second picture stream based on the single-view video codec, wherein the second encoding operation is based on the encoder state information provided by the first encoding operation. On the basis of the encoded picture of the first picture stream and encoded picture of the second picture stream, dedicated video streams are generated.

The invention relates to techniques for processing media data at a receiver device in a packet-switched network. It is proposed to detect data packet losses in the media data, and to determine data frames, like P-frames or I-frames, within a group of successive frames, like the GOP structure, affected by a packet loss. The number of the affected data frames is compared with a threshold value and if said number is equal or higher then the threshold value, then it is proposed to drop the affected data frames and to provide for playing-out data frames in form of a slide show.

This invention relates to a method and to a system for thinning a stream of packet-switched video data in which a stream of packet-switched video data is detected and the size of the packets in the video stream is determined, wherein packets of the video stream data are dropped depending on the size of the packets.

摘要:
There is provided a method of selecting PMV candidates, wherein each PMV candidate corresponds to a motion vector used for coding of a previous block, said previous block having a distance from a current block. The method comprises identifying allowed distance values of distances between the current block and the previous block. The method further comprises selecting a set of PMV candidates as a subset of the set of previously coded motion vectors that were used for previous blocks having an allowed distance from the current block.
