According to one embodiment, an image processing method includes calculating an activity value for a first block, the activity value indicating a higher degree of activity as pixel values vary in a greater degree in the first block, and calculating a first evaluation value that indicates higher evaluation as a difference between a pixel value of the first block and a pixel value of a second block is smaller. The method further includes calculating a second evaluation value that indicates higher evaluation as correlation between a relative spatial relationship of the pixel value of the first block and that of the pixel value of the second block is higher, and calculating a third evaluation value by weighting the first evaluation value and the second evaluation value to search for the second block that corresponds to the first block, a weight of the first evaluation value is larger as the activity value is larger.

According to one embodiment, a parallax image generating apparatus is for generating, using a first image, a parallax images with a parallax therebetween. The apparatus includes following units. The first estimation unit estimates distribution information items indicating distributions of first depths in the first image by using first methods. The distribution information items falls within a depth range to be reproduced. The first combination unit combines the distribution information items to generate first depth information. The second calculation unit calculates second depth information indicating relative unevenness of an object in the first image. The third combination unit combines the first depth information and the second depth information by using a method different from the first methods, to generate third depth information. The generation unit generates the parallax images based on the third depth information and the first image.

According to an image processing device includes an acquiring unit and a correcting unit. The acquiring unit is configured to acquire a stereoscopic image containing a plurality of parallax images each having a mutually different parallax. The correcting unit is configured to perform, for each pixel of the stereoscopic image, correction to set a parallax number of a parallax image viewed at a viewpoint position to a first parallax number of a parallax image to be viewed at the viewpoint position by using correction data representing a difference value between the first parallax number and a second parallax number of a parallax image that is actually viewed at the viewpoint position and on which distortion correction for correcting distortion of light beams has been performed.

According to one embodiment, a parallax image generating apparatus includes a deriving unit, a generating unit, a first calculating unit, a setting unit, a searching unit, and an interpolating unit. The deriving unit derives a parallax vector corresponding to a first pixel from the input image and depth information associated with the first pixel. The generating unit generates an intermediate image. The first calculating unit calculates first weights for respective pixels of a parallax image. The setting unit sets one or more candidate blocks near a shade-forming-area pixel of the intermediate image, and sets a reference block among one or more candidate blocks. The searching unit searches a target block similar to the reference block in the input image and/or the intermediate image. The interpolating unit interpolates a pixel value of the shade-forming-area pixel.
