Abstract
A decoding device, an encoding device and a method for point cloud decoding is disclosed. The method includes receiving a bitstream. The method also includes decoding the bitstream into a geometry frame and a texture frame. The geometry and texture frames represent include pixels representing points of the 3D point cloud from different layers. The method further includes deriving a set of missing geometry values from the pixels in the geometry frame and a set of missing texture values from the pixels in the texture frame. The method additionally includes generating a first set of frames representing geometry based on the geometry frame and the set of missing geometry values and generating a second set of frames representing texture based on the texture frame and the set of missing texture values. The method also includes generating the 3D point cloud using the first and second sets of frames.
