An overview of the emerging JPEG Pleno standard, conformance testing and reference software

Recently, the ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 29/WG 1 standardization committee has been developing a new image compression standard known as JPEG Pleno. This standard aims to facilitate the capture, representation, and exchange of plenoptic imaging modalities such as light fields, point clouds, and holography. This paper presents a brief overview of the current status of JPEG Pleno series of standards and coding architecture as defined in Part 1 and Part 2 of the standard, and a detailed discussion of the current activities on defining the conformance tests and the reference software parts within the standard.

Automated summary

The ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 29/WG 1 standardization committee has been developing a new image compression standard called JPEG Pleno, which aims to facilitate the capture, representation, and exchange of various rich imaging modalities. This paper provides an overview of the current status of the JPEG Pleno series of standards and coding architecture, as well as a detailed discussion on the activities related to defining conformance tests and reference software parts within the standard.
