Abstract

See full text

An picture encoding method includes steps of converting a reference depth map into a virtual depth map that is a depth map of an object photographed in a target picture, generating a depth value of an occlusion region in which there is no depth value in the reference depth map generated by an anteroposterior relationship of the object by assigning a depth value of which a correspondence relationship with a region on the same object as an object shielded in the reference picture is obtained to the occlusion region, and performing picture prediction between views by generating a disparity-compensated picture for the encoding target picture from the virtual depth map and the reference picture after the depth value of the occlusion region is generated.
