IMAGE GENERATING APPARATUS, IMAGE GENERATING METHOD, AND PROGRAM

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To generate a reconstructed image which reflects imaging information of a main subject more.SOLUTION: A layer definition part 3210 defines layers of a reconstructed image. A layer image generating part 3220 reconstructs, on a layer-by-layer basis, an image of a subject included in an assigned depth range from a light field image and its depth map. A transformation pixel extraction unit 3240 extracts a corresponding pixel on a transformation layer corresponding to a change-target subject designated by operation acquired by a change operation acquisition unit 3150. Layer images are transformed using a transformation matrix defined by a transformation matrix definition unit 3250, and a changed reconstructed image generation unit 3270 superimposes layer images to generate an image with changed composition.
