  • Publication number: 20230113529
    Abstract: An encoding method and an electronic device for point cloud compression are provided. A two-dimensional image and an occupancy map of a point cloud are obtained. An occupancy status of point cloud data of each pixel sample in the two-dimensional image is determined according to the occupancy map. A weight parameter of each pixel sample in an encoding block of the two-dimensional image is determined according to the occupancy statuses of point cloud data of multiple pixel samples. Multiple rate-distortion costs respectively corresponding to multiple encoding operation options are calculated according to the weight parameter of each pixel sample in the encoding block. One of the encoding operation options is determined to be used to perform an encoding operation on the encoding block according to a minimum rate-distortion cost among the rate-distortion costs.
