HYPOTHETICAL REFERENCE DECODER FOR MULTIVIEW VIDEO CODING

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method of defining a hypothetical reference decoder (HRD) for multiview video coding (MVC).SOLUTION: The method defines constraints for each possible interoperability point. Each combination of M views denotes an interoperability point. The method allows constraints to be defined for a set of interoperable points, and other sets are derived from the defined set. The method also allows rules of the interoperability points to be derived from information in bitstream syntax.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1
