<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a system for, with good quality, increasing the resolution of an image, which was photographed with a low resolution and has a subjective image quality lower than an image having a high resolution, by restoring high-frequency component information which a low resolution image does not have, for a new technique based on a viewpoint for handling a multi-view image having different resolutions. <P>SOLUTION: In an image generation method for generating image information of an image C by using an image A and an image B having a resolution higher than that of image A, the image C having the same resolution as image B is generated by enlarging image A, the presence or absence of a point in the image B corresponding to each pixel position of the image C and the position of the corresponding point are estimated, and image information of the corresponding position in image B is set to each pixel position in the image C in which it is estimated that there is a corresponding point. It is possible to generate image information at a pixel position in the image C in which it is estimated in the corresponding point estimation that there is no corresponding point, by using the image information set according to an estimation result that there is a corresponding point. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT |
