GPU-accelerated depth codec for real-time, high-quality light field reconstruction (2018)
Journal Article
Koniaris, B., Kosek, M., Sinclair, D., & Mitchell, K. (2018). GPU-accelerated depth codec for real-time, high-quality light field reconstruction. Proceedings of the ACM on Computer Graphics and Interactive Techniques, 1(1), 1-15. https://doi.org/10.1145/3203193

Pre-calculated depth information is essential for efficient light field video rendering, due to the prohibitive cost of depth estimation from color when real-time performance is desired. Standard state-of-the-art video codecs fail to satisfy such per... Read More about GPU-accelerated depth codec for real-time, high-quality light field reconstruction.

System and method of presenting views of a virtual space (2018)
Patent
Mitchell, K., Koniaris, C., Iglesias-Guitian, J., Moon, B., & Smolikowski, E. (2018). System and method of presenting views of a virtual space. US20180114343

Views of a virtual space may be presented based on predicted colors of individual pixels of individual frame images that depict the views of the virtual space. Predictive models may be assigned to individual pixels that predict individual pixel color... Read More about System and method of presenting views of a virtual space.

Compressed Animated Light Fields with Real-time View-dependent Reconstruction (2018)
Journal Article
Koniaris, C., Kosek, M., Sinclair, D., & Mitchell, K. (2019). Compressed Animated Light Fields with Real-time View-dependent Reconstruction. IEEE Transactions on Visualization and Computer Graphics, 25(4), 1666-1680. https://doi.org/10.1109/tvcg.2018.2818156

We propose an end-to-end solution for presenting movie quality animated graphics to the user while still allowing the sense of presence afforded by free viewpoint head motion. By transforming offline rendered movie content into a novel immersive repr... Read More about Compressed Animated Light Fields with Real-time View-dependent Reconstruction.

Method for Efficient CPU-GPU Streaming for Walkthrough of Full Motion Lightfield Video (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Chitalu, F. M., Koniaris, B., & Mitchell, K. (2017, December). Method for Efficient CPU-GPU Streaming for Walkthrough of Full Motion Lightfield Video. Presented at 14th European Conference on Visual Media Production (CVMP 2017), London, United Kingdom

Lightfield video, as a high-dimensional function, is very demanding in terms of storage. As such, lightfield video data, even in a compressed form, do not typically fit in GPU or main memory unless the capture area, resolution or duration is sufficie...
