High Efficient Depth Video Coding Based on Static Region Skipping

Article Preview

Abstract:

Depth video has attracted great attention recently with the trend of MVD (Multiview plus depth) being the main 3D representation format. In order to improve depth video coding efficiency, we propose a novel depth video coding algorithm based on static region skipping. Firstly, based on the corresponding color video, depth video is segmented into two regions: motion regions and static regions. The blocks in static regions are skipped without encoding. The skipped blocks are predicted from the neighboring depth images. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm not only saves the bitrate up to 56.83% but also improves virtual view quality and saves the encoding time.
