Abstract

Disclosed herein are an apparatus and method for removing redundant data between multi-view videos. The method includes generating a pruning mask of an additional view image by mapping a basic view image to the additional view image, among multi-view images, and revalidating the pruning mask using color information of the basic view image and the additional view image. Revalidating the pruning mask may include defining a color relationship between the basic view image and the additional view image by extracting predetermined sample values from corresponding pixels between the basic view image and the additional view image, which are included in the pruning candidate group of the pruning mask, and detecting pixels that do not match the defined color relationship, among the pixels in the pruning mask, as outliers.
