In this paper, we present an efficient approach for the compression of stereoscopic video sequences. By extending an H.264/AVC-based multi-view video coding (MVC) codec as described in a previous paper to mixed-resolution imagery, i.e., to stereoscopic videos where the right-eye view had been spatially down-sampled in order to reduce the total amount of data to be encoded, we are able to combine the benefits of both disparity-compensated prediction (DCP) and asymmetric coding. By doing so, we expect to achieve very high compression gains without reducing the overall visual quality of the resulting three-dimensional (3D) percept
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
