- Try with demo.m
- Feel free to hack!
Why is the program so slow?
A: It invokes the JEM video encoder to compress the pseudo sequence, which is very slow. On my own computer it takes around 2 hours to encode one light field. If you are an expert of video coding, you can surely use other encoders to replace JEM, by making changes in hevc_enc.m. If you want to quickly verify the program, you can download our coded bitstream here, put it into the folder "results", and comment the code
encoder(img, rate);in demo.m. Then it only invokes decoder and quality evaluation.
Why is there only one test image?
A: Please refer to the original link here for all the 12 test light field images.
