A Novel 2D-to-3D Conversion System Using Edge Information IEEE Transactions on Consumer Electronics 2010 Chao-Chung Cheng Chung-Te li Liang-Gee Chen
Introduction • Some approaches that can generate 3D content • Time-of-flight depth sensor • Triangular stereo vision • 3D graph rendering
Introduction • How does our brain perceive depth? • Monocular cues:one of the major categories for depth perception • Motion parallax • Binocular cues
Monocular cues • Interposition (overlapping) • Relative Height • Familiar Size • Texture Gradient • Shadow • Linear Perspective
Proposed System • Block-Based Region Grouping • Depth from Prior Hypothesis • 3D Image Visualization using Bilateral Filtering and Depth Image-Based Rendering
Block-Based Region Grouping • Measure the similarity of neighboring blocks • The blocks are segmented into multiple groups by MST
Depth from Prior Hypothesis • Use a line detection algorithm[9] to detect the linear perspective of the scene C.-C. Cheng, C.-T. Li, P.-S. Huang, T.-K. Lin, Y.-M. Tsai, and L.-G. Chen, “A block-based 2D-to-3D conversion system with bilateral filter,” in Proc. IEEE Int. Conf. Consumer Electronics, 2009
Depth from Prior Hypothesis • Find the corresponding depth map gradients • Compute the gravity center of the block group as the depth
3D Image Visualization using Bilateral Filtering and Depth Image-Based Rendering • Remove the blocky artifacts by cross bilateral filter • Then the depth map is used to generate 3D image by DIBR[3] W.-Y.

Experiment Result • Analysis of Computational Complexity • Analysis of Visual Quality
Analysis of Computational Complexity • The computational complexity is • Larger block size implies shorter computational time but lower depth map quality
Analysis of Visual Quality • Comparing the depth quality and visual comfort over 4 video data types • Videos that captured by a stereoscopic camera • Proposed algorithm • Previous work of [9] • Commercial software of DDD’s TriDef
Conclusion • The proposed algorithm uses edge information to group the image into coherent regions. • A simple depth hypothesis is determined by the linear perspective of the scene. • The algorithm is quality-scalable depending on the block size.
