Abstract:
A method and apparatus for array image processing are provided. The method includes receiving sub images corresponding to different views of an input array image generated through an array lens, generating temporary restored images based on the sub images using a gradient between neighboring pixels of each of the sub images, determining matching information based on a view difference between pixels of the sub images using a neural network model, based on a pixel distance between matching pairs of the pixels of the sub images using the matching information, extracting refinement targets from the matching pairs, refining the matching information by replacing at least some of target pixels included in the refinement targets based on a local search of a region based on pixel locations of the refinement targets, and generating an output image of a single view by merging the temporary restored images based on the refined matching information.
