Partial Depth Image Based Re-Rendering for Synthesized View Distortion Computation.

3D video systems transmit depth maps in order to render synthesized views (SVs) at a receiver. To anticipate this purpose when processing a depth map, a sender-side depth processing algorithm (DPA), e.g. a depth encoder, can also render the SVs, compute their SV distortion (SVD), and adapt to it. This requires a low-complexity algorithm as computational resources are usually limited. We propose su...
