Abstract
A method of predicting point cloud attribute coding includes receiving point cloud data comprising one or more candidate points and extracting one or more candidate attribute values for the one or more candidate points from the received point cloud data. The method further includes calculating a weighted median from the one or more extracted candidate attribute values and a weight factor, whereby the weight factor corresponds to a relative importance factor of a candidate vector associated with the extracted candidate attribute values. The method further includes assign one or more prediction indices corresponding to attribute data for video encoding to the candidate points in response to the calculation of the weighted median, wherein the prediction indices and processing the media content to encode the attribute data associated with the candidate points having the lowest prediction indices.
