Abstract
An electronic device and method for multiscale inter-prediction for dynamic point cloud compression is provided. The electronic device receives a set of reference point cloud frames and a current point cloud frame. The electronic device generates reference frame data comprising a feature set for each reference point cloud frame and a first set of features for the current point cloud frame. The electronic device predicts a second set of features for the current point cloud frame, using a first neural network predictor, based on the reference frame data. The electronic device computes a set of residual features based on the first set of features and the second set of features. The electronic device generates a set of quantized residual features based on the set of residual features and a bitstream of encoded point cloud data for the current 3D point cloud frame based on the set of quantized residual features.
