Title: Synchronization of decoded frames before point cloud reconstruction
Inventor: GRAZIOSI DANILLO
IPC: H04N19/46
Filed: 2020-10-08
Abstract: A method and Video-Based Point Cloud Compression (V-PCC) decoder for synchronization of decoded frames before point cloud reconstruction is provided. A V-PCC bit-stream which includes encoded frames associated with a point cloud sequence is received. Sub-streams of the received V-PCC bit-stream are decoded by a group of video decoders of the V-PCC decoder to generate V-PCC components, such as an attribute component, a geometry component, an occupancy map component, and an atlas component. A release of the attribute component, the geometry component, the occupancy map component, and the atlas component to the reconstruction unit is delayed based on a first output delay, a second output delay, a third output delay, and a fourth output delay, respectively. The delayed release synchronizes the attribute component, the geometry component, the occupancy map component, and the atlas component with each other before the reconstruction unit reconstructs a point cloud based on the V-PCC components.

Filed: 2021-04-05
Abstract: In various examples there is a method of image processing comprising: storing a real image of an object in memory, the object being a specified type of object. The method involves computing, using a first encoder, a factorized embedding of the real image. The method receives a value of at least one parameter of a synthetic image rendering apparatus for rendering synthetic images of objects of the specified type. The parameter controls an attribute of synthetic images of objects rendered by the rendering apparatus. The method computes an embedding factor of the received value using a second encoder. The factorized embedding is modified with the computed embedding factor. The method computes, using a decoder with the modified embedding as input, an output image of an object which is substantially the same as the real image except for the attribute controlled by the parameter.
