    摘要: The present invention provides a method of generating a virtual viewpoint video image when the virtual viewpoint position is not located on a plane where a camera is disposed. In an environment in which a plurality of cameras having a horizontal optical axis are disposed in a real zone (for example, on the circumference) which surrounds an object, a video image of an arbitrary viewpoint on the circumference is generated. Further, by synthesizing video images photographed by a camera, a free viewpoint video image is generated from a virtual viewpoint (viewpoint from a high or low position) where no camera is placed. According to a method of achieving this, a travel distance of a display position is calculated by the local region synthesizing portion and this travel distance is reflected to the free viewpoint video image of a local region.

    摘要: It is a purpose of the present invention to provide a video encoding apparatus, a video decoding apparatus, a video encoding method, a video decoding method, and a computer program, which allow adaptive filter coefficients to be used with a reduced amount of coding. A video encoding apparatus AA selects a suitable coefficient from among multiple kinds of interpolation filter coefficients determined beforehand by means of a component external to the video encoding apparatus AA. Subsequently, the video encoding apparatus AA records identification information uniquely defined for the selected interpolation filter coefficient in control information for each slice. Furthermore, the video encoding apparatus AA uses the interpolation filter coefficient thus selected to generate encoded data c including the identification information uniquely defined for the interpolation filter coefficient thus selected.
