When the shooting geometry is constrained, or when the same stereoscopic movie must be displayed with different viewing geometries (e.g. in a movie theater and on a 3DTV), these depth distortions may be reduced by novel view synthesis techniques. They usually involve three steps: computing the stereo disparity, computing a disparity-dependent 2D mapping from the original stereo pair to the synthesized views, and finally composing the synthesized views. In this paper, we focus on the second and third step: we examine how to generate new views so that the perceived depth is similar to the original scene depth, and we propose a method to detect and reduce artifacts in the third and last step, these artifacts being created by errors contained in the disparity from the first step
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
