Description

Progressive point cloud geometric information compression method based on curved surface feature constraint
Technical Field

Background
In recent years, along with the rapid development and wide application of the three-dimensional perception technology, the point cloud becomes an indispensable important data form in the fields of three-dimensional reconstruction, virtual reality, automatic driving and the like. However, the high dimensionality and large scale of point clouds makes their storage and transmission very challenging.
At present, the traditional compression schemes widely applied, such as GPCC, draco and the like, generally perform voxel processing on point clouds, divide the point clouds by adopting a tree-shaped or block-shaped structure, and encode the structured point clouds. But the pre-processing of voxelization makes the reconstructed point cloud "mosaic" phenomenon serious, especially in high compression rate scenes. In recent years, deep learning methods have been introduced into the field of point cloud compression, such as DPCC. The deep learning method encodes the point cloud into hidden variables through nonlinear transformation, has the capability of abstracting high-level characteristics, and obtains good compression performance. However, due to the lack of constraints, at bit rates, the reconstructed point cloud has a large number of outliers that deviate from the point cloud surface.
