Shrnutí:The increasing prevalence of VR/AR as well as the expected availability of Light Field (LF) display soon call for more practical methods to transmit LF image/video for services. In that aspect, the LF video coding should not only consider the compression efficiency but also the view random-access capability (especially in the multi-view-based system). The multi-view coding system heavily exploits view dependencies coming from both inter-view and temporal correlation. While such a system greatly improves the compression efficiency, its view random-access capability can be much reduced due to so called "chain of dependencies." In this paper, we first model the chain of dependencies by a tree, then a cost function is used to assign an importance value to each tree node. By travelling from top to bottom, a node of lesser importance is cut-off, forming a pruned tree to achieve reduction of random-access complexity. Our tree pruning method has shown to reduce about 40% of random-access complexity at the cost of minor compression loss compared to the state-of-the-art methods. Furthermore, it is expected that our method is very lightweight in its realization and also effective on a practical LF video coding system.
