Distortion analysis and error concealment for multi-view video transmission

This paper analyzes the distortion in decoded multi-view video caused by random packet losses in the underlying transmission network and proposes an error concealment method for for multi-view video. Taking into account the interdependent coding among views, which is an important component of multi-view video coding, a distortion estimation formula is developed by mathematical discursion. Additionally, an error concealment scheme for multi-view stereo video is proposed to enhance the quality of the multi-view video over packet-switching networks.
