Abstract
The present disclosure relates to an information processing apparatus and method capable of reducing a decrease in flexibility in controlling an amount of coding point cloud data. There are formed a reference structure of geometry data in coding of a point cloud that represents a three-dimensional object as a set of points, corrected the geometry data so that a coding amount decreases, derived, on the basis of the formed reference structure, a predicted value of the corrected geometry data, derived a predictive residual that is a difference between the geometry data and the predicted value, and coded the derived predictive residual. The present disclosure can be applied to, for example, an information processing apparatus, an image processing apparatus, a coding apparatus, an electronic device, an information processing method, a program, or the like.
