A survey on multiview video synthesis and editing

Abstract

Multiview video can provide more immersive perception than traditional single 2-D video. It enables both interactive free navigation applications as well as high-end autostereoscopic displays on which multiple users can perceive genuine 3-D content without glasses. The multiview format also comprises much more visual information than classical 2-D or stereo 3-D content, which makes it possible to perform various interesting editing operations both on pixel-level and object-level. This survey provides a comprehensive review of existing multiview video synthesis and editing algorithms and applications. For each topic, the related technologies in classical 2-D image and video processing are reviewed. We then continue to the discussion of recent advanced techniques for multiview video virtual view synthesis and various interactive editing applications. Due to the ongoing progress on multiview video synthesis and editing, we can foresee more and more immersive 3-D video applications will appear in the future.

Towards natural object-based image recoloring

“…Lu et al [47] design a color retargeting approach, which composes a time-varying color image. Color editing has also been applied in multi-view [48][49][50][51] and 3D analysis [52,53]. Some researchers also attempt to preserve aesthetic or creative intentions during transfer [54][55][56].…”

Voice recognition by neuro-heuristic method

“…A survey of multimedia methods can be found in Ref. [1]. Neural networks are one of these methods that were widely applied as classifiers and co-work with other computational techniques in user verification systems.…”
