Point cloud compression with adaptive filtering

A system, comprising:

• a decoder configured to:
• receive one or more video encoded image frames comprising attribute patch images and depth patch images packed into one or more image frames that have been video encoded;
• receive an occupancy map for the one or more image frames;
• video decode the one or more video encoded image frames;
• perform one or more post-processing processes on decoded ones of the one or more video encoded image frames;
• and
• reconstruct a representation of the point cloud based on the one or more post-processed video decoded image frames,
• wherein to perform the post processing the decoder is configured to:
• adjust one or more parameters of the one or more post processing processes based on received or determined relationship information indicating relationships between the respective attribute patch images or the respective depth patch images.

A method of reconstructing a point cloud, comprising:

• receiving one or more image frames comprising attribute patch images and depth patch images packed into the one or more image frames;
• receiving an occupancy map for the one or more image frames;
• performing one or more post-processing processes on the one or more image frames, wherein said performing the one or more post-processing processes comprises:
• determining or receiving relationship information indicating relationships between the respective attribute patch images and the respective depth patch images, wherein the relationship information is determined based on the occupancy map, the attribute patch images, or the depth patch images;
• and
• adjusting one or more parameters of the one or more post processing processes based on the determined or received relationship information;
• and
• reconstructing a representation of the point cloud based on the one or more post-processed image frames.
