Abstract:
This image encoding method has: a step for converting a reference depth map to a virtual depth map that is the depth map of a subject imaged in a subject image; a step for, with respect to an occlusion region at which a depth value is not present in the reference depth map arising by means of the contextual relationship of a subject, generating a depth value for the occlusion region by means of allocating a depth value obtained from a corresponding relationship with respect to a region on the same subject as the subject that is shielded in the reference image; and a step for, from the reference image and the virtual depth map after generating the depth value of the occlusion region, performing image prediction between perspectives by means of generating a parallax compensation image with respect to the image to be encoded.
