Abstract:
1. A multi-view encoding method, comprising: encoding views according to disparity vectors between the views; acquiring location parameter information for cameras corresponding to the views, which represent locations of the cameras; encoding the location parameter information; and writing the encoded location parameter information to a bitstream; wherein the location parameter information for the camera is an absolute coordinate information for the camera, or a relative coordinate information for the cameras corresponding to neighboring views determined by taking location of an arbitrary camera as a coordinate origin, and optionally a motion information of the camera; wherein the encoding the views according to the disparity vectors between the views comprises at least one of the following: wherein, if the first disparity vector is a disparity vector between a coding view and one reference view, and the second disparity vector is a disparity vector between the coding view and another reference view, encoding the coding view according to the second disparity vector and outputting the encoded result comprises:
