Original Abstract Submitted

Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method for point cloud coding. The method comprises: determining, during a conversion between a point cloud sequence and a bitstream of the point cloud sequence, an information unit for a current sample of the point cloud sequence and at least one parameter value, the information unit being obtained by coding the current sample with the at least one parameter value, the at least one parameter value being absent from the information unit; and performing the conversion based on the information unit and the at least one parameter value. Compared with the conventional solution, the proposed method can advantageously improve coding efficiency.
