Title
Content Adaptive Representations of Omnidirectional Videos for Cinematic Virtual Reality
Abstract
Cinematic virtual reality provides an immersive visual experience by presenting omnidirectional videos of real-world scenes. A key challenge is to develop efficient representations of omnidirectional videos in order to maximize coding efficiency under resource constraints, specifically, number of samples and bitrate. We formulate the choice of representation as a multi-dimensional, multiple-choice knapsack problem and show that the resulting representations adapt well to varying content. We also show that separation of the sampling and bit allocation constraints leads to a computationally efficient solution using Lagrangian optimization with only minor performance loss. Results across images and videos show significant coding gains over standard representations.
