Abstract
A method and a device for post-processing depth/disparity maps adopt a strategy of combining edge information and segmentation information when detecting irregular edge regions. The method includes dividing a color image into super pixels when performing image segmentation on a color image; partitioning a grayscale range into a preset number of intervals, and for each super pixel, statistically obtaining a histogram of all the pixel points that fall within the intervals; determining, in a current super pixel, whether a ratio of the number of pixels contained in the interval having a maximum interval distribution value, to the total number of pixels in the current super pixel is less than the first threshold; and if so, further dividing the current super pixel using a color-based segmentation method. The disclosed method and device improve accuracy of color image division while ensuring image processing speed, thus improving detection accuracy of the irregular edge regions.
