Patent 11308576 was granted and assigned to Microsoft on April, 2022 by the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
In accordance with implementations of the subject matter described herein, there is proposed a solution of visual stylization of stereoscopic images. In the solution, a first feature map for a first source image and a second feature map for a second source image are extracted. The first and second source images correspond to first and second views of a stereoscopic image, respectively. A first unidirectional disparity from the first source image to the second source image is determined based on the first and second source images. First and second target images having a specified visual style are generated by processing the first and second feature maps based on the first unidirectional disparity. Through the solution, a disparity between two source images of a stereoscopic image are taken into account when performing the visual style transfer, thereby maintaining a stereoscopic effect in the stereoscopic image consisting of the target images.
