Patent attributes
Methods, systems, and media for generating compressed images are provided. In some embodiments, the method comprises: identifying a multi-plane image, MPI, that represents a three-dimensional image, wherein the MPI comprises a plurality of fronto-parallel planes; splitting the MPI into a plurality of sub-volumes, wherein each sub-volume in the plurality of sub-volumes includes a subset of the plurality of fronto-parallel planes; calculating, for each sub-volume of the MPI, a depthmap; converting each depthmap to a mesh, wherein each mesh corresponds to a layer of a plurality of layers associated with a multi-depth image, MDI, to be rendered; calculating, for each layer of the plurality of layers, an image; and storing the meshes corresponding to the plurality of layers of the MDI and the images corresponding to the plurality of layers of the MDI as the MDI.
