Geometry Compression of Normal Meshes Using Rate-Distortion Algorithms

چکیده
We propose a new rate-distortion based algorithm for compressing 3D surface geometry represented using triangular normal meshes. We apply the Estimation-Quantization (EQ) algorithm to compress normal mesh wavelet coefficients. The EQ algorithm models the wavelet coefficients as a Gaussian random field with slowly varying standard deviation that depends on the local neighborhood and uses rate-distortion optimal scalar quantizers. We achieve gains of 0.5 to 1 dB with the EQ algorithm compared to the recently proposed zerotree compression for normal meshes.

Estimation-Quantization Geometry Coding Using Normal Meshes
We propose a new algorithm for compressing three-dimensional triangular mesh data used for representing surfaces. We apply the EstimationQuantization (EQ) algorithm originally designed for still image compression to the normal mesh wavelet coefficients. The EQ algorithm models the wavelet coefficients as a Gaussian random field with slowly varying standard deviation. By designing the quantizers...
متن کاملAdaptive Coarse-to-Fine Quantization for Optimizing Rate-distortion of Progressive Mesh Compression
We propose a new connectivity-based progressive compression approach for triangle meshes. The key idea is to adapt the quantization precision to the resolution of each intermediate mesh so as to optimize the rate-distortion trade-off. This adaptation is automatically determined during the encoding process and the overhead is efficiently encoded using geometrical prediction techniques. We also i...

In current light field compression algorithms, geometry information is critical for efficient compression of light field image data. Inaccuracies in the geometry can greatly affect the compression efficiency.

متن کاملCompression progressive et tatouage conjoint de maillages surfaciques avec attributs de couleur. (Progressive compression and joint compression and watermarking of surface mesh with color attributes)
The use of 3D models, represented as a mesh, is growing in many applications. For efficient transmission and adaptation of these models to the heterogeneity of client devices, progressive compression techniques are generally used. To protect the copyright during the transmission, watermarking techniques are also used. In this thesis, we first propose two progressive compression methods for mesh...
