Abstract :
Methods are proposed for coding of the depth map and disparity fields for stereo or multiview image communication applications. Block-based and wireframe modeling techniques are examined for the coding of isolated depth map information and 2-D and 3-D motion compensation techniques for the coding of depth map sequences are evaluated
