Abstract

A three-dimensional data encoding method encodes a plurality of three-dimensional points, and includes: selecting one of two or more prediction modes for calculating a predicted value of an attribute information item of the first three-dimensional point, in accordance with attribute information items of one or more second three-dimensional points in the vicinity of a first three-dimensional point; calculating the predicted value by the selected prediction mode; calculating, as a prediction residual, a difference between a value of the attribute information item of the first three-dimensional point and the calculated predicted value; and generating a bit stream that includes the one prediction mode and the prediction residual.

Claims (24)

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

selecting one prediction mode from two or more prediction modes in accordance with attribute information items of one or more second three-dimensional points in vicinity of a first three-dimensional point, the two or more prediction modes each being used to calculate a predicted value of an attribute information item of the first three-dimensional point;

calculating the predicted value by the one prediction mode selected;

calculating, as a prediction residual, a difference between a value of the attribute information item of the first three-dimensional point and the predicted value calculated; and

generating a bit stream, the bit stream including the one prediction mode and the prediction residual.

2. A three-dimensional data decoding method of decoding a plurality of three-dimensional points, the method comprising:

obtaining a bit stream to obtain (i) a prediction mode of a first three-dimensional point among the plurality of three-dimensional points and (ii) a prediction residual;

calculating the predicted value by the prediction mode obtained in the obtaining; and

adding the predicted value with the prediction residual to calculate an attribute information item of the first three-dimensional point.

3. A three-dimensional data encoding device that encodes a plurality of three-dimensional points, the device comprising:

a processor; and

a memory, wherein

by using the memory, the processor performs:

selecting one prediction mode from two or more prediction modes in accordance with attribute information items of one or more second three-dimensional points in vicinity of a first three-dimensional point, the two or more prediction modes each being used to calculate a predicted value of an attribute information item of the first three-dimensional point;

calculating the predicted value by the one prediction mode selected;

calculating, as a prediction residual, a difference between a value of the attribute information item of the first three-dimensional point and the predicted value calculated; and

generating a bit stream, the bit stream including the one prediction mode and the prediction residual.

4. A three-dimensional data decoding device that decodes a plurality of three-dimensional points, the device comprising:

a processor; and

a memory, wherein

by using the memory, the processor performs:

obtaining a bit stream to obtain (i) a prediction mode of a first three-dimensional point among the plurality of three-dimensional points and (ii) a prediction residual;

calculating the predicted value by the prediction mode obtained in the obtaining; and

adding the predicted value with the prediction residual to calculate an attribute information item of the first three-dimensional point.
