Abstract
A technique for displaying 3D videos creates a representation of image deformation, such as depth maps, in terms of a function for overlaying kernels with variable support and order. By optimizing the kernel type, order and support, which are allowed to be varied across different region of the deformation, it is able to approximate the image deformations in terms of the kernel parameters. Since the number of kernel parameters is usually much smaller than that of the number of pixels, this allows a significant reduction in the storage size of the image deformation.
