Abstract:
A method and apparatus are provided for converting a Two-Dimensional (2D) video to a Three-Dimensional (3D) video is disclosed. The method includes detecting a shot including similar frames in the 2D video; setting a key frame in the shot; determining whether a current frame is the key frame; when the current frame is the key frame, performing segmentation on the key frame, assigning a depth to each segmented object in the key frame; and when the current frame is not the key frame, performing the segmentation on non-key frames, and assigning the depth to each segmented object in the non-key frames.
