EXISTENCE OF INTER-VIEW REFERENCE PICTURE AND AVAILABILITY OF 3DVC CODING TOOLS

摘要

The availability of some 3DVC coding tools such as IVMP and VSP is proposed to be dependent with the existence of inter-view reference picture, which makes the IVMP and VSP behave in a reasonable way when there is no inter-view picture in current reference lists. In the original case, an undefined behavior might happen due to the invalid DV. In this invention, it is proposed to conditionally disable the IVMP and VSP when the derived DV is invalid.
