Abstract

In this paper, we present a wavelet-based progressive compression method for isomorphic 3-D mesh sequence with constant connectivity. Our method reduces the spatial and temporal redundancy by using both spatial and temporal wavelet analysis. To encode geometry information, each mesh frame is decomposed into a base mesh and its spatial wavelet coefficients of each resolution level by spatial wavelet analysis filter bank. The spatially transformed sequence is decomposed into several sub-band signals by temporal wavelet analysis filter bank. The resulting signal is encoded by using an arithmetic coder. Since an isomorphic mesh sequence has the same connectivity over all frames, the connectivity information is encoded only for the first mesh frame. The proposed method enables both progressive representation and lossless compression in a single framework by multi-resolution wavelet analysis with a perfect reconstruction filter bank. Our method is compared with several conventional techniques including our previous work.
