This paper presents the overview and rationale behind the Decoder-Side Depth Estimation
(DSDE) mode of the MPEG Immersive Video (MIV) standard, using the Geometry Absent …

Abstract High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) surpasses its predecessors in encoding
efficiency by introducing new coding tools at the cost of an increased encoding time …

In the digital age, people's demand for 3D videos is becoming increasingly strong.
Nowadays, the 3D-HEVC video coding standard is far from meeting people's needs …

Mismatches between the precisions of representing the disparity, depth value and rendering
position in 3D video systems cause redundancies in depth map representations. In this …

Decoder-Side Depth Estimation (DSDE) is a system firstly enabled in the novel MPEG
Immersive Video (MIV) coding standard. In DSDE, only texture components are coded, while …

This paper presents a novel approach to decoder-side depth estimation (DSDE) in
immersive video transmission. The proposal improves the state-of-the-art coding approach …

Abstract The three-dimensional High Efficiency Video Coding (3D-HEVC) standard is an
extension of the High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) standard which is the latest three …

As the demand for higher quality 3D videos continues to grow, the 3D extensions of the
Efficient Video Coding (3D-HEVC) standard are gradually unable to meet the needs of …

In order to achieve high realism an acceptable level of user experience in immersive videos,
it is crucial to provide both the best possible quality of depth maps and minimize …

This paper presents an enhanced method for the transmission of 3D video in the Multi-view
Video plus Depth (MVD) format over Two-Way Relay Channels (TWRC). Our approach …
