Abstract
Systems and methods which provide Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) based synthesized view quality enhancement for video coding are described. Embodiments may comprise an encoder configured for CNN based synthesized view quality enhancement configured to provide improved coding efficiency while maintaining synthesized view quality. Additionally or alternatively, embodiments may comprise a virtual viewpoint generator configured for CNN based synthesized view quality enhancement configured provide post-processing of the synthesized view at the decoder side to reduce the artifacts. CNN based synthesized view quality enhancement may, for example, be provided for 3D video coding to improve its coding efficiency, which can be utilized in 3D scenarios, such as 3DTV.
