Decoding Path Selection for Multi-View Video System

To improve random access performance in multi-view video system, predication structure for multi-view video coding is represented with weighted graph. Then the optimal decoding path with respect to random access of user is computed by referring to the idea of the shortest path in graph theory. Experimental results show that the proposed scheme can obtain the shortest decoding path, and can effectively reduce the response time of random access and bandwidth in multi-view video system.
