<p>A method and apparatus for encoding a multiview video using a minimum amount of information regarding the multiview video are provided. The method includes estimating a disparity vector between a reference frame and each adjacent frame at a different viewpoint from a viewpoint of the reference frame; generating a compensated version of the adjacent frame using the reference frame and the disparity vector; determining a correlation between the adjacent frame and the compensated frame; and determining a prediction structure for encoding the multiview video using the determined correlation. When the method and apparatus are used, a multiview video can be efficiently encoded using a prediction structure that uses a minimum amount of information regarding the multiview video.</p> |
