The proposed algorithm adaptively computes the matching cost using a temporal weighting function, which is obtained by block-based moving object detection and motion estimation with variable block sizes. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm improves the temporal consistency of the depth video and reduces by about 38% both the flickering artefact in the synthesized view and the number of coding bits for depth video coding.展开更多

This approach efficiently incorporates the information from the conditional quantile restrictions to account for within-subject correlations. The resulted estimate is computationally simple and has good performance under modest or high within-subject correlation. The efficiency gain is quantified theoretically and illustrated via simulation and a real data application.展开更多
