Abstract
An enhanced graph transformation-based point cloud attribute compression method. For point cloud attribute information, a point cloud is first subjected to airspace division by using a K-dimension (KD) tree; a new graph transformation processing method in combination with spectral analysis is provided; the point cloud is then subjected to spectral clustering on graphs in coded blocks of the point cloud; expansion is performed on the basis of existing graph transformation to implement a local graph transformation scheme; enhanced graph transformation with two transformation modes is formed; the compression performance of graph transformation is improved. The method comprises: performing color space transformation of point cloud attributes; dividing the point cloud by using the KD tree to obtain the coded blocks; performing spectral clustering-based enhanced graph transformation; performing transformation mode decision; and performing uniform quantization and entropy coding. Provided is a new spectral analysis-based enhanced graph transformation scheme, wherein two transformation modes are comprised, and the optimal mode is selected by the mode decision; after the point cloud is divided with the tree, a graph is created in each coded block and the graph transformation is used as transformation mode I; on this basis, graph spectral clustering is implemented; the graph is divided into two local graphs and then local graph transformation is performed to serve as transformation mode II; in the enhanced graph transformation scheme supporting the two transformation modes, the optimal mode is selected by the mode decision to achieve the optimal performance of point cloud attribute compression.
