Abstract
Methods and devices for encoding a point cloud. A bit sequence signalling an occupancy pattern for sub-volumes of a volume is coded using binary entropy coding. For a given bit in the bit sequence, a context may be based on a sub-volume neighbour configuration for the sub-volume corresponding to that bit. The sub-volume neighbour configuration depends on an occupancy pattern of a group of sub-volumes of neighbouring volumes to the volume, the group of sub-volumes neighbouring the sub-volume corresponding to the given bit. The context may be further based on a partial sequence of previously-coded bits of the bit sequence.
