INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS AND METHOD - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18265387 titled 'INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS AND METHOD

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes an information processing apparatus and method for decoding attribute data more reliably by performing nearby point search for setting a reference point to be referred to when deriving a prediction value of attribute data of a processing target node.

  • Nearby point search is executed only for nodes that are decoded earlier than the processing target node in a tree structure where attribute data of each point of a point cloud expressing a three-dimensional object is a node.
  • Slices serving as node groups that can be encoded independently of each other are formed in the tree structure.
    • Potential Applications:**

- Image processing - 3D modeling - Data compression

    • Problems Solved:**

- Improved reliability in decoding attribute data - Efficient prediction value derivation

    • Benefits:**

- Enhanced accuracy in attribute data decoding - Reduced processing time - Improved overall performance in information processing tasks


Original Abstract Submitted

There is provided an information processing apparatus and method that enable attribute data to be decoded more reliably. Nearby point search for setting a reference point to be referred to when deriving a prediction value of attribute data of a processing target node is executed only for a node that is decoded earlier than the processing target node at the time of decoding among nodes of a tree structure in which attribute data of each point of a point cloud expressing an object having a three-dimensional shape as a set of points is a node and slices serving as node groups that can be encoded independently of each other are formed. The present disclosure can be applied to, for example, an information processing apparatus, an encoding apparatus, a decoding apparatus, an electronic device, an information processing method, or a program.
