Abstract
In this paper, a new intermediate view reconstruction technique by using a disparity estimation method based-on the adaptive matching window size is proposed. In the proposed method, once the feature values are extracted from the input stereo image, then the matching window size for the intermediate view reconstruction is adaptively selected in accordance with the magnitude of this feature values. That is, coarse matching is performed in the region having smaller feature values while accurate matching is carried out in the region having larger feature values by comparing with the predetermined threshold value. Accordingly, this new approach is not only able to reduce the mismatching probability of the disparity vector mostly happened in the accurate disparity estimation with a small matching window size, but is also able to reduce the blocking effect occurred in the disparity estimation with a large matching window size. Some experimental results on the 'Parts' and 'Piano' images show that the proposed method improves the PSNR about 2.32∼4.16dB and reduces the execution time to about 39.34∼65.58% than those of the conventional matching methods.
