MPEG-I Visual group is actively working on enhancing immersive experiences with up to six degree of freedom (6DoF). In virtual space of omnidirectional 6DoF, which is defined as a case of degree of freedom providing 6DoF in a restricted area, looking at the scene from another viewpoint (another position in space) requires rendering additional viewpoints called virtual omnidirectional viewpoints. This paper presents the performance analysis on view synthesis, which is done as the exploration experiment (EE) in MPEG-I, from a set of 360 videos providing omnidirectional 6DoF in various ways with different distances, directions, and number of input views. In addition, we compared the subjective quality between synthesized images with one input view and two input views.

This paper is concerned with the problem of setting controller's parameters when applying the intelligent PID (i-PID), which has recently been proposed and had many successful results, to the two-degree-of-freedom (2DoF) PID controller structure. Generally, the parameter settings of conventional PID controllers are known to be quite difficult and be dependent on the characteristics of the plants. In addition, it is less known how the two 2DoF parameters are set up for the improvement of transient characteristics. Here, we are going to present one of the criteria for parameter setting in the case of using a 2DoF i-PID, by evaluating the error signals to the set-point and disturbance. That is, we first, obtain parameters of i-PID by optimizing the disturbance responses, and then determine two parameters of 2DoF component through optimizing set-point response. The standard values of all parameters are calculated for the 7 types of test batches and rounded up as a table.

In this paper, six-degree-of-freedom (DoF). Displacement measurement technique using a compact stereo-vision system is proposed. The measuring system consists of a camera, an optical prism, two plane mirrors, and a planar marker on a target. The target was attached on an object so that its six-DoF displacement can be calculated using a proposed coordinates estimating algorithm and stereo images of the marker. A prototype was designed and fabricated for performance test. From the test results, it can be confirmed that the proposed measuring technique can be applied to monitoring and control of various manipulators.

In this paper, we apply the complementation principle of five prime substances to reduce the phase interference. The transmitter and receiver match the concepts of co-operative and conflict to the direct and indirect signals. The result shows we investigate the proposed network topology such as 5 prime substances (5 user networks). The key observation is that optimal symmetric degree of freedom (DoF) can be achieved for 5 user network with different channel coherence times by adaptively selecting the interference alignment scheme via controlling the alignment feasibility of the transmitted signals. Theoretical results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed 5 user networks are well matched to the wireless mobile channel environment to achieve the symmetric DoF for different channel coherence times which ensures that the proposed networks are applicable for dense wireless network applications. Modulo 3 functionality in 5 user network topology makes it easier for the transmitter cooperation to achieve the DoF of 2/3 with the help of the interference alignment schemes.

three degree of freedom (3DoF), three degree of freedom plus (3DoF+), six degree of freedom(6DoF) 등 몰입형 비디오의 높은 몰입감을 제공하기 위해 다중 비디오 영상을 효율적으로 처리하는 기법이 활발히 연구되고 있다. 이를 위해 원본의 몰입형 비디오가 입력되면 기본 시점 영상과 추가 시점 영상에서의 중복을 제거하고 기본 시점(basic view)에서는 보이지 않지만 추가 시점(additional view)에서는 보이는 영역을 추출하는 프루닝 과정이 이뤄지는 부호기에서의 부호화 모드 결정은 매우 중요하다. 본 논문은 test model for immersive video (TMIV)의 모드 중 하나인 MPEG immersive video (MIV) view mode 를 통해 만들어진 프루닝 (pruning) 그래프에서 선택된 시점들을 활용하여 뷰 간 중복성을 제거할 수 있는 효율적인 부호화 구조로 클러스터를 기반으로 병렬적으로 부호화하는 클러스터 기반 정렬 기법을 제안한다. 선택된 시점들을 인덱스 순서에 따라 부호화하는 기존 방법에 비해 제안하는 방법은 peak signal-to-noise ratio (Y-PSNR)에서 평균 3.9%의 BD-rate 절감을 보여주었다. 본 연구는 또한 더 객관적인 품질 측정을 위해 immersive video peak signal-to-noise ratio (IV-PSNR)에 의한 비교 결과도 함께 제공하며, 참조 순서에 맞게 정렬한 프루닝 기반 정렬 기법과의 비교도 함께 제공한다.

Recently, as the demand for immersive videos increases, efficient video processing techniques for omnidirectional immersive video is actively developed by MPEG-I. While the omnidirectional video provides a larger degree of freedom for a free viewpoint, the size of the video increases significantly. Furthermore, in order to compress 6 degree-of-freedom (6 DoF) videos that support motion parallax, it is required to develop a codec to yield better coding efficiency. In this paper, we develop a 6 DoF codec using Versatile Video Coding (VVC) as the next generation video coding standard. To the authors' best knowledge, this is the first VVC-based 6 DoF video codec toward the future ISO/IEC 23090 Part 7 (Metadata for Immersive Media (Video)) MPEG-I standardization. The experiments were conducted on the seven test video sequences specified in Common Test Condition (CTC) in two operation modes of TMIV (Test Model for Immersive Media) software. It is demonstrated that the proposed codec improves coding performance around 33.8% BD-rate reduction in the MIV (Metadata for Immersive Video) mode and 30.2% BD-rate reduction in the MIV view mode as compared to the state-of-the-art TMIV reference software. We also show the performance comparisons using Immersive Video PSNR (IV-PSNR) and Mean Structural Similarity (MSSIM).

360 video is attracting attention as immersive media with the spread of VR applications, and MPEG-I (Immersive) Visual group is actively working on standardization to support immersive media experiences with up to six degree of freedom (6DoF). In virtual space of omnidirectional 6DoF, which is defined as a case of degree of freedom providing 6DoF in a restricted area, looking at the scene at any viewpoint of any position in the space requires rendering the view by synthesizing additional viewpoints called virtual omnidirectional viewpoints. This paper presents the performance results on view synthesis and their analysis, which have been done as exploration experiments (EEs) of omnidirectional 6DoF in MPEG-I. In other words, experiment results on view synthesis in various aspects of synthesis conditions such as the distances between input views and virtual view to be synthesized and the number of input views to be selected from the given set of 360 videos providing omnidirectional 6DoF are presented.

We present six-degree-of-freedom (6DoF) haptic rendering algorithms using translational ($PD_t$) and generalized penetration depth ($PD_g$). Our rendering algorithm can handle any type of object/object haptic interaction using penalty-based response and makes no assumption about the underlying geometry and topology. Moreover, our rendering algorithm can effectively deal with multiple contacts. Our penetration depth algorithms for $PD_t$ and $PD_g$ are based on a contact-space projection technique combined with iterative, local optimization on the contact-space. We circumvent the local minima problem, imposed by the local optimization, using motion coherence present in the haptic simulation. Our experimental results show that our methods can produce high-fidelity force feedback for general polygonal models consisting of tens of thousands of triangles at near-haptic rates, and are successfully integrated into an off-the-shelf 6DoF haptic device. We also discuss the benefits of using different formulations of penetration depth in the context of 6DoF haptics.

The two degree of freedom model is proposed to study the effects of imperfect fixing at the active end of spring-top resonant column apparatus. A computer program using the SYMPHONY spreadsheet is developed to calculate the dimensionless frequency, F, from which modulug can be determined. It is found that the effect of reaction mass through the parameter Tr on dimensionless frequency, F, can not be ignored if Tr$\leq$20. As To increases, the variation of F increases. But for Tr$\geq$ 20, the effect of To becomes small. It is recommended that T. be greater than 20 if single degree of freedom model is rosed to determine modulus of soil. It also is found that damping ratios of specimen and apparatus do not strongly affect the dimensionless frequency, F.
