However, perceptual errors introduced by current view synthesis often result in severe distortions in synthesized images. In this paper, we propose a novel view synthesis fusion (VSF) method which adaptively exploits temporal and disparity correlations to improve the quality of the synthesized picture. The proposed VSF method defines a robust correlation assessment metric for fusing several pre-created virtual view candidates. Unlike conventional methods, the proposed fusion algorithm is applied for both hole and non-hole areas. Experimental results show significantly outperforming peak signal-to noise ratio (PSNR) and subjective visual quality by the proposed method compared to other conventional methods. %D 2019 %I The Institute of Electronics and Information Engineers (IEIE) %L SisLab3454
