Abstract

This paper presents a novel inter-view motion prediction technique used in 3D-HEVC which provides efficient compression for motion vectors. The 3D extension of HEVC (High Efficiency Video Coding) namely 3D-HEVC is under development in JCT-3V for coding multi-view video and depth data. Inter-view motion prediction takes benefit of the inter-view correlation between views by inferring the motion information of a view from the already coded motion information in another view as well as the local disparity between two views. Experimental results show that inter-view motion prediction in 3D-HEVC provides an average bit-rate savings of 15% for the dependent views.
