AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The present invention is about making 2D images into 3D images using a depth map neural network. By selecting a front view image and a back view image from a frame, the network can efficiently convert the 2D image into a 3D image. Additionally, by identifying several frames with similar images and using a converted frame to replace them, the time required to convert the entire image is shortened.

Problems solved by technology

Although the above-mentioned document discloses a method for converting a 2D image into a 3D image using a depth-map, it does not disclose a technology for converting 2D images into 3D images so that the images acquire a three-dimensional effect using a neural network.

Abstract

A method and apparatus for image conversion according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes receiving original image data, separating the original image data into a front view image and a back view image for performing 3D conversion processing of the original image data, and generating a converted 3D image by restoring a background space between the front view image and the back view image using a 3D conversion processing neural network. The 3D conversion processing neural network according to the present disclosure may be a deep neural network generated by machine learning, and input and output of images may be performed in an Internet of things environment using a 5G network.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION[0001]Pursuant to 35 U.S.C. § 119(a), this application claims the benefit of earlier filing date and right of priority to Korean Patent Application No. 10-2019-0139580, filed on Nov. 4, 2019, the contents of which are hereby incorporated by reference herein in its entirety.BACKGROUND1. Technical Field[0002]The present disclosure relates to a method and apparatus for image conversion capable of converting a 2D image into a 3D image by classifying the 2D image into a front view image and a back view image using a depth-map, and converting the 2D image into a 3D image using a 3D conversion processing neural network that is suitable for restoring a background space between the classified front view image and back view image.2. Description of Related Art[0003]The following description is only for the purpose of providing background information related to embodiments of the present disclosure, and the contents to be described do not necessarily consti...
