초록

본 논문은 저해상도의 깊이맵을 고해상도의 깊이맵으로 변환하는 새로운 방법인 거리 변환 기반의 양측 업샘플링 기법을 제안한다. 제안하는 방법은 깊이맵의 거리변환 값에 따라 공간 도메인 가중치 함수를 조절하기 때문에 에지의 선명도를 유지하면서 깊이맵의 해상도를 증가시킨다. 이를 위해, 제안하는 방법은 거리 변환 단계, 공간 가중치 조절 단계, 영상 보간 단계를 거친다. 다양한 실험 깊이 맵을 통한 실험에서 제안하는 방법이 기존의 양측 업샘플링 방법보다 출력 깊이맵의 화질 관점에서 성능이 좋아짐을 확인했다.

In this paper, we propose a new method to convert a low-resolution depth map into its high-resolution one called distance transform-based bilateral upsampling. Since the proposed method controls the spatial domain weighting function based on distance transform values of the depth map, it increases the input depth map resolution while preserving edge sharpness. The proposed method is composed of three main steps: distance transform, spatial weighting control, and image interpolation. Experimental results show that our method outperforms the conventional bilateral upsampling in terms of the quality of output depth maps.
