A method of decoding encoded information of a point cloud may be performed by at least one processor and comprises: obtaining an encoded bitstream, the encoded bitstream including encoded information of a point cloud including a set of points in a three-dimensional space; and determining a type of partitioning used to encode the information of the point cloud by at least one of parsing signals of at least three binary syntaxes or inferring at least one syntax of the at least three binary syntaxes.
