Abstract
Provided are a method, apparatus, and non-transitory computer readable medium for adaptive filtering in patch generation for video-based point cloud coding. The method includes projecting points included in a connected component (CC) to a projection plane associated with the CC, and removing one or more outlier points to generate an updated CC; determining a first surface by selecting one or more points associated with the updated CC; adaptively filtering the one or more points selected for the first surface, by adjusting a grid size parameter based on one or more characteristics of the CC; determining a second surface by selecting one or more points associated with the updated CC; adding a patch corresponding to the filtered first surface and the second surface to a list of patches associated with an original point cloud; and coding the original point cloud based on the list of patches.
