Abstract

The invention discloses a virtual viewpoint drawing method based on depth value non-linear transformation. The method comprises the following steps: firstly an adaptive edge-based pre-processing filter which is composed of an edge preservation filter and an asymmetrical Gauss smooth filter in series connection; using the edge filter to iteratively process a depth map, so that not only can the noise information be removed, but also the probability of hole in an object in a target image is reduced by smoothing continuous regions in the object; using the asymmetrical Gauss smooth filter to process the depth map and the object edge, avoiding the geometrical distortion in vertical direction while smoothing the horizontal gradient; after considering a human eye visual characteristic factor, carrying out non-linear mapping on a gray scale of the depth image and a space real distance to effectively reduce the hole in a target image background and enhance the three-dimensional viewing of a user; and finally filling the hole in the target image and eliminating all holes. The method provided by the invention is simple to realize, free from geometrical distortion and low in computation complexity.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method in the technical field of video image processing, in particular to a virtual viewpoint rendering method based on nonlinear transformation of depth values. Background technique [0002] The virtual viewpoint rendering technology starts from a series of reference images, and then generates new viewpoint images. Among them, depth image based rendering (Depth Image Based Rendering, DIBR) is a method that uses color images and their corresponding depth images to generate new viewpoint images. application. The core of DIBR technology is the three-dimensional image transformation (3D Image Warping) equation. Its principle is to map the pixels on the reference image to the target image according to the depth information corresponding to each pixel in the reference image. However, since the occlusion relationship between objects will change to a certain extent during the mapping process, it is inevitable that some hol...
