Abstract

A three-dimensional data encoding method includes: encoding pieces of attribute information of respective three-dimensional points, using parameters; and generating a bitstream including the pieces of attribute information encoded, control information, and pieces of first attribute control information. The control information corresponds to the pieces of attribute information and includes pieces of type information each indicating a type of different attribute information, the pieces of first attribute control information correspond one-to-one with the pieces of attribute information, and each of the pieces of first attribute control information includes first identification information indicating that the first attribute control information is associated with one of the pieces of type information.

Claims (30)

1. An encoding method comprising:

encoding one or more data groups; and

generating coded data, a first parameter set for the coded data, and a second parameter set, the coded data including one or more data units, the one or more data units each including a data unit header, wherein

the first parameter set includes one or more data group parameters corresponding to the one or more data groups, respectively,

the second parameter set includes a first parameter set index indicating the first parameter set corresponding to the second parameter set, and

the data unit header of a first data unit includes (i) a second parameter set index indicating the second parameter set corresponding to the first data unit and (ii) a value indicating a data group parameter corresponding to the first data unit among the one or more data group parameters stored in the first parameter set.

2. An encoder comprising:

a processor; and

a memory,

wherein using the memory, the processor performs:

encoding one or more data groups; and

generating coded data, a first parameter set for the coded data, and a second parameter set, the coded data including one or more data units, the one or more data units each including a data unit header, wherein

the first parameter set includes one or more data group parameters corresponding to the one or more data groups, respectively,

the second parameter set includes a first parameter set index indicating the first parameter set corresponding to the second parameter set, and

the data unit header of a first data unit includes (i) a second parameter set index indicating the second parameter set corresponding to the first data unit and (ii) a value indicating a data group parameter corresponding to the first data unit among the one or more data group parameters stored in the first parameter set.

3. A decoding method comprising:

obtaining coded data, a first parameter set for the coded data, and a second parameter set, the coded data including one or more data units, the one or more data units each including a data unit header; and

decoding the one or more data units based on the first parameter set, wherein

the first parameter set includes one or more data group parameters corresponding to one or more data groups, respectively,

the second parameter set includes a first parameter set index indicating the first parameter set corresponding to the second parameter set, and

the data unit header of a first data unit includes (i) a second parameter set index indicating the second parameter set corresponding to the first data unit and (ii) a value indicating a data group parameter corresponding to the first data unit among the one or more data group parameters stored in the first parameter set.

4. A decoder comprising:

a processor; and

a memory,

wherein using the memory, the processor performs:

obtaining coded data, a first parameter set for the coded data, and a second parameter set, the coded data including one or more data units, the one or more data units each including a data unit header; and

decoding the one or more data units based on the first parameter set, wherein

the first parameter set includes one or more data group parameters corresponding to one or more data groups, respectively,

the second parameter set includes a first parameter set index indicating the first parameter set corresponding to the second parameter set, and

the data unit header of a first data unit includes (i) a second parameter set index indicating the second parameter set corresponding to the first data unit and (ii) a value indicating a data group parameter corresponding to the first data unit among the one or more data group parameters stored in the first parameter set.
