Abstract
A method of compressing a deep image representation may include receiving a deep image, where the deep image may include multiple pixels, and where each pixel in the deep image may include multiple samples. The method may also include compressing the deep image by combining samples in each pixel that are associated with the same primitives. This process may be repeated on a pixel-by-pixel basis. Some embodiments may use primitive IDs to match pixels to primitives through the rendering and compositing process.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- receiving, using a computer system, a deep image comprising a plurality of pixels, each pixel in the plurality of pixels comprising a plurality of samples;
- and
- compressing, using the computer system, the deep image by combining samples in the plurality of samples for each pixel that are associated with same primitives.
A non-transitory storage medium comprising instructions which, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:
- receiving a deep image comprising a plurality of pixels, each pixel in the plurality of pixels comprising a plurality of samples;
- and
- compressing the deep image by combining samples in the plurality of samples for each pixel that are associated with same primitives.
A system comprising:
- one or more processors;
- and
- a non-transitory storage memory comprising instructions which, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations including:
- receiving a deep image comprising a plurality of pixels, each pixel in the plurality of pixels comprising a plurality of samples;
- and
- compressing the deep image by combining samples in the plurality of samples for each pixel that are associated with same primitives.
