Method and apparatus for processing array image

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform an image processing method comprising:

• Based on an imaging device generating an input array image of a multi-view through an array lens, determining a first setting parameter indicating whether to use the multi-view or a single view selected from the multi-view;
• determining a second setting parameter indicating whether a priority is assigned to sensitivity enhancement based on pixel binning or to resolution enhancement based on pixel interpolation;
• determining an image processing mode based on the first setting parameter and the second setting parameter;
• and
• generating an output image by performing image processing on the input array image based on a processing procedure that is based on the determined image processing mode.

An image processing apparatus comprising:

• a processor;
• and
• a memory configured to store instructions executable by the processor,
• wherein, in response to the instructions being executed by the processor, the processor is configured to:
• based on an imaging device generating an input array image of a multi-view through an array lens, determine a first setting parameter indicating whether to use the multi-view or a single view selected from the multi-view,
• determine a second setting parameter indicating whether a priority is assigned to sensitivity enhancement based on pixel binning or to resolution enhancement based on pixel interpolation,
• determine an image processing mode based on the first setting parameter and the second setting parameter, and
• generate an output image by performing image processing on the input array image based on a processing procedure that is based on the determined image processing mode.

An electronic device comprising:

• an imaging device configured to generate an input array image of a multi-view through an array lens, the input array image comprising sub images corresponding to the multi-view;
• and
• a processor configured to:
• determine a first setting parameter indicating whether to use the multi-view or a single view selected from the multi-view,
• determine a second setting parameter indicating whether a priority is assigned to sensitivity enhancement based on pixel binning or to resolution enhancement based on pixel interpolation,
• determine an image processing mode based on the first setting parameter and the second setting parameter, and
• generate an output image by performing image processing on the input array image based on a processing procedure that is based on the determined image processing mode.
