Fast Inter-frame Motion Prediction for Compressed Dynamic Point Cloud Attribute Enhancement

Wang Liu, Wei Gao, Xingming Mu

Abstract

Recent years have witnessed the success of deep learning methods in quality enhancement of compressed point cloud. However, existing methods focus on geometry and attribute enhancement of single-frame point cloud. This paper proposes a novel compressed quality enhancement method for dynamic point cloud (DAE-MP). Specifically, we propose a fast inter-frame motion prediction module (IFMP) to explicitly estimate motion displacement and achieve inter-frame feature alignment. To maintain motion continuity between consecutive frames, we propose a motion consistency loss for supervised learning. Furthermore, a frequency component separation and fusion module is designed to extract rich frequency features adaptively. To the best of our knowledge, the proposed method is the first deep learning-based work to enhance the quality for compressed dynamic point cloud. Experimental results show that the proposed method can greatly improve the quality of compressed dynamic point cloud and provide a fast and efficient motion prediction plug-in for large-scale point cloud. For dynamic point cloud attribute with severely compressed artifact, our proposed DAE-MP method achieves up to 0.52dB (PSNR) performance gain. Moreover, the proposed IFMP module has a certain real-time processing ability for calculating the motion offset between dynamic point cloud frame.
