This paper presents a new objective quality metric that was adapted to the complex
characteristics of immersive video (IV) which is prone to errors caused by processing and …

This paper presents the overview and rationale behind the Decoder-Side Depth Estimation
(DSDE) mode of the MPEG Immersive Video (MIV) standard, using the Geometry Absent …

In this paper we consider immersive visual media that are currently researched within
scientific community. These include the well-established technologies, like 360-degree …

This paper describes two methods for increasing the efficiency of the MPEG Immersive
Video (MIV) coding standard. The methods manipulate the MIV-formatted atlas videos by …

The paper presents a new method of depth estimation, dedicated for free-viewpoint
television (FTV) and virtual navigation (VN). In this method, multiple arbitrarily positioned …

In the paper, we propose a new method for the virtual view synthesis called as Multiview
Synthesis. In our approach, virtual views are synthesized using two neighboring real views …

This chapter presents an overview of the acquisition, processing, and rendering pipeline in a
multiview video system, targeting the unique feature of rendering virtual views, not captured …

This paper presents a novel approach to decoder-side depth estimation (DSDE) in
immersive video transmission. The proposal improves the state-of-the-art coding approach …

Free viewpoint video (FVV) has drawn great attention in recent years, which provides
viewers with strong interactive and immersive experience. Despite the developments made …

The paper deals with the problem of the optimal selection of the real views used for the
virtual view synthesis in the free navigation systems. The practical free navigation system …
