    Abstract: Several implementations relate, for example, to depth encoding and/or filtering for 3D video (3DV) coding formats. A sparse dyadic mode for partitioning macroblocks (MBs) along edges in a depth map is provided as well as techniques for trilateral (or bilateral) filtering of depth maps that may include adaptive selection between filters sensitive to changes in video intensity and/or changes in depth. One implementation partitions a depth picture, and then refines the partitions based on a corresponding image picture. Another implementation filters a portion of a depth picture based on values for a range of pixels in the portion. For a given pixel in the portion that is being filtered, the filter weights a value of a particular pixel in the range by a weight that is based on one or more of location distance, depth difference, and image difference.

    Abstract: An apparatus includes a video/image encoder configured to design a two-dimensional star-shaped spatial filter and encode image/video information using the X-shaped spatial filter. The star-shaped spatial filter includes a first linear arrangement of coefficients that extend outwardly in a first diagonal direction from a center pixel coefficient, a second linear arrangement of coefficients that extend outwardly in a second diagonal direction, and two linear arrangements of coefficients that extend outwardly in horizontal and vertical directions from the center pixel coefficient from the center pixel coefficient. The second diagonal direction is oriented in a different direction relative to the first diagonal direction.

    Abstract: Various implementations are directed to providing inter-layer dependency information. In one implementation, syntax elements are generated that indicate an inter-layer dependency structure among three-dimensional video (3DV) layers. Based on the inter-layer dependency structure, an inter-layer reference is identified for a picture from a layer of the 3DV layers. The picture is encoded based, at least in part, on the inter-layer reference. Corresponding decoding implementations are also provided. Additionally, in another implementation, a transmission priority and an indication of network congestion are used to determine whether to transmit data for a particular 3DV layer. The transmission priority is based on an inter-layer dependency structure among multiple 3DV layers. Another implementation is directed to a network abstraction layer unit that can explicitly identify and convey inter-layer references and corresponding dependencies.
