Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a method and an apparatus for encoding multi plane image (MPI)-based volumetric video. A method for encoding a MPI-based volumetric video according to one aspect of the present disclosure may include: generating an MPI for each frame according to time change from a plurality of multi-viewpoint images; identifying a dynamic region and a static region within the MPI for each frame; generating a first atlas based only on the dynamic region and a second atlas based only on the static region; and encoding the first atlas and the second atlas to generate a bitstream, respectively.
