Abstract
A method includes processing, using at least one processor of an electronic device, multiple reference images of a scene using a first convolutional neural network (CNN) to generate a confidence map and a disparity map. The method also includes generating, using the at least one processor, an initial Bokeh image based on the disparity map and the reference images using a depth-of-field (DoF) renderer. The method further includes refining, using the at least one processor, the initial Bokeh image using a second CNN to generate a refined Bokeh image, where the second CNN uses the confidence map, the disparity map, and the reference images to generate the refined Bokeh image.
