Bibliographic details on General Synthesized View Distortion Estimation for Depth Map Compression of FTV.

The paper deals with prospective 3D video transmission systems that would use compression of both multiview video and depth maps.

Abstract—The paper presents a new method of depth estimation dedicated for free-viewpoint television (FTV). The estimation is.

Distortions of synthesized views caused by compression of views and depth maps.

Distortions in depth map induce geometry changes in the virtual views, and thus degrade the performance of view synthesis. This paper proposes a depth map ...
