    摘要: Disclosed is a hierarchical division-based point cloud attribute compression method. For point cloud attribute information, a new hierarchical division based coding scheme is proposed, wherein a frame of point cloud is adaptively divided into a “stripe-macroblock-block” hierarchical structure according to the spatial position and color distribution of the point cloud, and stripes are coded independently from one another, increasing the coding efficiency, enhancing the fault tolerance of a system and improving the performance of point cloud attribute compression. The method comprises: (1) inputting a point cloud; (2) division of a k-dimension (KD) tree structure of the point cloud; (3) continuity analysis of point cloud attribute information; (4) stripe division of the point cloud; (5) division of macroblocks and coding blocks of the point cloud; and (6) intra-frame prediction, transformation, quantification and entropy coding based on a block structure.
