Abstract: |
Recent developments in the compression of dynamic meshes or mesh sequences have shown that the statistical dependencies within a mesh sequence can be exploited well by predictive coding approaches. Coders introduced so far use experimentally determined or heuristic thresholds for tuning the algorithms. In video coding rate-distortion (RD) optimization is often used to avoid fixing of thresholds and to select a coding mode. We applied these ideas and present here an RD-optimized mesh coder. It includes different prediction modes as well as an RD cost computation that controls the mode selection across all possible spatial partitions of a mesh to find the clustering structure together with the associated prediction modes. The structure of the RD-optimized D3DMC coder is presented, followed by comparative results with mesh sequences at different resolutions. |
