%X This paper proposes a new compression algorithm fordynamic 3d meshes. In such a sequence of meshes,neighboring vertices have a strong tendency to behavesimilarly and the degree of dependencies between theirlocations in two successive frames is very large which canbe efficiently exploited using a combination of Predictiveand DCT coders (PDCT). Our strategy gathers meshvertices of similar motions into clusters, establish alocal coordinate frame (LCF) for each cluster andencodes frame by frame and each cluster separately. Thevertices of each cluster have small variation over atime relative to the LCF. Therefore, the location ofeach new vertex is well predicted from its location inthe previous frame relative to the LCF of its cluster.The difference between the original and the predictedlocal coordinates are then transformed into frequencydomain using DCT. The resulting DCT coefficients arequantized and compressed with entropy coding. Theoriginal sequence of meshes can be reconstructed       from only a few non-zero DCT coefficients without  significant loss in visual quality. Experimental results  show that our strategy outperforms or comes close to other  coders.

  <abstract>This paper proposes a new compression algorithm for
dynamic 3d meshes. In such a sequence of meshes,
neighboring vertices have a strong tendency to behave
similarly and the degree of dependencies between their
locations in two successive frames is very large which can
be efficiently exploited using a combination of Predictive
and DCT coders (PDCT). Our strategy gathers mesh
vertices of similar motions into clusters, establish a
local coordinate frame (LCF) for each cluster and
encodes frame by frame and each cluster separately. The
vertices of each cluster have small variation over a
time relative to the LCF. Therefore, the location of
each new vertex is well predicted from its location in
the previous frame relative to the LCF of its cluster.
The difference between the original and the predicted
local coordinates are then transformed into frequency
domain using DCT. The resulting DCT coefficients are
quantized and compressed with entropy coding. The
original sequence of meshes can be reconstructed       from only a few non-zero DCT coefficients without
  significant loss in visual quality. Experimental results
  show that our strategy outperforms or comes close to other
  coders.</abstract>
