Abstract
In this paper, we propose a new approach for efficient multiview stereo matching and virtual view generation, which are key technologies for 3DTV. We propose semi N-view & N-depth framework to estimate disparity maps efficiently and correctly. This framework reduces the redundancy on disparity estimation by using the information of neighboring views. The proposed method provides a user 2D/3D freeview video, and the user can select 2D/3D modes of freeview video. Experimental results show that the proposed method yields the accurate disparity maps and the synthesized novel view is satisfactory enough to provide user seamless freeview videos.
