Deblocking Filtering Based on View Correlation for Multiview Video Decoding

A well-designed deblocking filtering scheme should make tradeoff between both coding efficiency and coding complexity. However, the existing multiview video deblocking filtering algorithm has adopted H.264 deblocking scheme to improve the video quality with high coding complexity without consideration the view correlation. In this paper, we propose a low complexity deblocking filtering algorithm based on motion skip mode. It makes use of view correlation to simplify the BS of an MB computation time when the coded macroblock is in motion skip mode. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm can achieve decoding time saving significantly without any perceptual quality loss in comparison to the deblocking filtering in JMVC.
