Problems solved by technology

The basic idea of ​​these methods is to reduce the search points to reduce the amount of computation. Although it is simple and easy to implement, there are also some shortcomings. For example, the assumption of environmental conditions is not reasonable, and the existence and influence of environmental noise are ignored. The fast search algorithm can only get a local optimum

Embodiment Construction

[0024] The present invention will be further described below by taking disparity vector acquisition from any two adjacent sequences of a multi-viewpoint video sequence as an example with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0025] 1) For the two-way video sequence to be processed, the nth frame of the left path is denoted as Pln, and the nth frame of the right path is denoted as Prn, where n=1, 2, 3......, the left path corresponds Each frame is used as an anchor frame, and each frame on the right is used as a prediction frame. During specific implementation, each frame is divided into several macroblocks of predetermined size, for example, the size of 16×16 pixels.

[0026] 2) The first frame Pl1 and Pr1, as the first group, has no disparity vectors of the first two frames that can be referred to, so the full search method can be used to determine the best matching block of each macroblock of Pr1 in Pl1, and then obtain a more accurate disparity The vector Xr1(r, s) (wh...

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for estimating optical parallax by using Kalman filtering optimization. During the optical parallax estimation, an optical parallax vector is acquired by using the conventional fast matching algorithm; Kalman filtering is performed on the result of the optical parallax vector to make the result approach to the result acquired by using a full search algorithm; and the precision of the optical parallax vector is improved to a fraction order by using the Kalman filter optimization. According to the method, the phenomenon that the times of interpolation operation and search are increased due to the conventional fraction precision search is prevented.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a multi-viewpoint video coding technology in the field of video coding, in particular to a fast algorithm for disparity estimation. Background technique [0002] Multi-viewpoint video coding is a key technology for stereoscopic video applications. Compared with traditional binocular stereoscopic video, it provides multiple viewpoints, making it possible for observers to appreciate stereoscopic video from different angles, and also enhances the authenticity of stereoscopic video. [0003] Multi-view video sequences include multiple videos shot by multiple cameras at the same time. Therefore, multi-view video sequences contain a huge amount of data, which brings a lot of inconvenience to the application of multi-view video sequences. Efficient multi-view video compression Technology becomes an urgent problem to be solved. [0004] At present, the multi-view video coding technology has achieved certain research results, and has b...
