Abstract:
A method for processing image data corresponding to temporally successive motions of an object, the method including adjusting a range of a first occlusion region which is estimated according to whether position changes occur in sub-blocks forming temporally successive first and second frames among image frames which display the motions of the object, by using Motion Vectors (MVs) mapped to the sub-blocks and detecting a second occlusion region of a third frame which displays the object that moves between the first frame and the second frame, by using the adjusted range of the first occlusion region.
Abstract:
An apparatus and method for motion estimation apparatus in an image processing system are provided. A depth information detector detects depth information relating to an input image on the basis of a predetermined unit. An image reconfigurer separates objects included in the input image based on the detected depth information and generates an image corresponding to each of the objects. A motion estimator calculates a motion vector of an object in each of the generated images, combines the motion vectors of the objects calculated for the generated images, and outputs a combined motion vector as a final motion estimate of the input image.
