The present disclosure relates to an image processing apparatus and a method that enable decoding of encoded data of an octree in various processing orders. The octree corresponding to point cloud data is encoded after the context is initialized for each layer of the octree. Further, a breadth-first order or a depth-first order is selected as the decoding order for the encoded data of the octree corresponding to point cloud data, and the encoded data is decoded in the selected decoding order. The present disclosure can be applied to an image processing apparatus, an electronic apparatus, an image processing method, a program, or the like, for example.

Image processing apparatus and method

There is provided an information processing apparatus, an image processing apparatus, an encoding device, a decoding device, an information processing method, and a program that facilitate scalable decoding of attribute information. Regarding the attribute information about a point cloud representing a three-dimensional object, a process of classifying the respective points of the point cloud into prediction points that are the points at which difference values between the attribute information and predicted values are left, and reference points that are the points at which the attribute information is referred to during derivation of the predicted values is recursively repeated on the reference points, so that the attribute information is hierarchized. At the time of the hierarchization, the prediction points are selected so that points also exist in voxels of the hierarchical level one level higher than the hierarchical level to which the voxels containing the points of the current hierarchical level belong.

Information processing apparatus and method

A filter process is performed on point cloud data using a representative value of the point cloud data for each local region obtained by dividing a three-dimensional space. A two-dimensional plane image on which the point cloud data subjected to the filter process is projected is encoded, and a bitstream is generated. The filter process can be performed by, for example, an information processing apparatus, an image processing apparatus, electronic equipment, an information processing method, a program, or the like.
