Estimating the term…
A method is proposed for estimating a depth for pixels in a matrix of M images. Such method comprises, at least for one set of N images among the M images, 2≤N≤M, a process comprising: —determining depth maps for the images in the set of N images delivering a set of N depth maps; —for at least one current pixel for which a depth has not yet been estimated: —deciding if a candidate depth corresponding to a depth value in the set of N depth maps is consistent or not with the other depth map(s) of the set of N depth maps; —selecting the candidate depth as being the estimated depth for the current pixel if the candidate depth is decided as consistent. The process is enforced iteratively with a new N value which is lower than the previous N value used in the previous iteration of the process.
A method for estimating a depth for pixels in a matrix of M images of a light field content, with M>2, comprising, at least for one set of N images taken among said M images, 2<N≤M, a process comprising:
A device for estimating a depth for pixels in a matrix of M images of a light field content, with M>2, comprising a processor or a dedicated computing machine configured for, at least for one set of N images taken among said M images, 2<N≤M, enforcing a process comprising:
