Abstract

A three-dimensional data encoding method is a three-dimensional data encoding method of encoding a plurality of three-dimensional points, and includes: selecting one prediction mode for calculating, using attribute information of a second three-dimensional point in a vicinity of a first three-dimensional point, a predicted value of attribute information of the first three-dimensional point; calculating a predicted value according to the one prediction mode; calculating a prediction residual that is a difference between the attribute information of the first three-dimensional point and the predicted value; and generating a bitstream that includes the one prediction mode and the prediction residual, and in the calculating of the predicted value, a predetermined fixed value is calculated as a predicted value calculated according to the one prediction mode in a case in which a predicted value based on the attribute information of the second three-dimensional point is not assigned to the one prediction mode.

Claims (9)

1. A three-dimensional data encoding method of encoding three-dimensional points, the three-dimensional data encoding method comprising:

(i) in a case in which a total number of second three-dimensional points available to calculate a predicted value of attribute information of a first three-dimensional point in one prediction mode selected from among two or more prediction modes is greater than a predetermined number corresponding to the one prediction mode selected, (a) calculating the predicted value according to the one prediction mode selected and (b) calculating a prediction residual that is a difference between the attribute information of the first three-dimensional point and the predicted value calculated;

(ii) in a case in which the total number is equal to or less than the predetermined number, not performing the calculation of the predicted value; and

generating a bitstream that includes the prediction residual.

2. The three-dimensional data encoding method according to claim 1 , wherein (ii) in the case in which the total number is equal to or less than the predetermined number, the attribute information of the first three-dimensional point is assigned as the prediction residual.

3. A three-dimensional data decoding method of decoding three-dimensional points, the three-dimensional data decoding method comprising:

(i) in a case in which a total number of second three-dimensional points available to calculate a predicted value of attribute information of a first three-dimensional point in one prediction mode selected from among two or more prediction modes is greater than a predetermined number corresponding to the one prediction mode selected, (a) obtaining a bitstream that includes one prediction mode and a prediction residual of a first three-dimensional point, (b) calculating the predicted value according to the one prediction mode obtained, and (c) calculating attribute information of the first three-dimensional point by adding the predicted value and the prediction residual; and

(ii) in a case in which the total number is equal to or less than the predetermined number, not performing the calculation of the predicted value.

4. The three-dimensional data decoding method according to claim 3 , wherein (ii) in the case in which the total number is equal to or less than the predetermined number, the prediction residual is assigned as the attribute information of the first three-dimensional point.
