Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An auxiliary information map ( 10 ) is upsampled to form an upsampled auxiliary information map ( 20 ). Multiple reference pixels ( 23 ) in the upsampled auxiliary information map ( 20 ) are selected for a current pixel ( 21 ) in the upsampled auxiliary information map ( 20 ) based on texel values of texels in an associated texture ( 30 ). An updated pixel value is calculated for the current pixel ( 21 ) based on the pixel values of the selected reference pixels ( 23 ).

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A method of upsampling an auxiliary information map comprising multiple pixels having a respective pixel value and being associated with a texture comprising multiple texels having respective texel values, said method comprising: upsampling said auxiliary information map based on said pixel values of said multiple pixels of said auxiliary information map to form an upsampled auxiliary information map comprising multiple pixels; for at least one pixel…
