  • Publication number: 20240144596
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for efficiently encoding geometry information for 3D media content. An illustrative system generates a low-resolution polygon mesh from a high-resolution polygon mesh. The system uses a vertex occupancy prediction network to generate, from vertices of the low-resolution polygon mesh, approximated vertices of the high-resolution polygon mesh. The system uses a connectivity prediction network to generate, from approximated vertices of the high-resolution polygon mesh, approximated connections of the high-resolution polygon mesh. The system computes vertex errors between the approximated vertices and the vertices of the high-resolution polygon mesh, and connectivity errors between the approximated connections and the connections of the high-resolution polygon mesh.
