Abstract: Disclosed is a skeleton-based dynamic point cloud estimation system for sequence compression, capable of generating a three-dimensional skeleton and a motion vector thereof from a group of point cloud frames to estimate a point cloud of a next frame, and compressing a point cloud sequence by obtaining a residual between the estimated point cloud and an original point cloud. Since the point cloud is estimated by using the motion vector of the skeleton, and the sequence is compressed by using a difference from an original value as the residual, an amount of point clouds to be input to a compressor is significantly reduced, so that compression efficiency is improved.
