METHOD AND APPARATUS OF DISPARITY VECTOR DERIVATION FOR THREE-DIMENSIONAL VIDEO CODING

摘要

A method and apparatus of three-dimensional/multi-view coding using aligned reference information are disclosed. The present system aligns the reference information associated with the reference view of the derived DV with the reference information associated with a selected reference view by modifying the selected reference view or by modifying the derived DV or a converted DV derived from depth block pointed by the derived DV. The DV can be derived using the Neighboring Block Disparity Vector (NBDV) process. When the reference view of the derived DV is different from the selected reference view, the system scales the derived DV or changes the converted DV to refer to the selected reference view. The system may also set the selected reference view to the reference view of the derived DV.
