Abstract:
Selecting at least one surface in a light field, such as a light field associated with multiple views corresponding to different view points of a same scene, may include displaying one of the multiple views as a reference view, selecting at least one surface in the reference view, identifying a set of pixels belonging to the selected surface, which are occluded in the reference view but visible in at least one of the multiple views, projecting the set of pixels into the reference view on the basis of a value of the pixels of the set in the view or views in which they are visible in order to form an upgraded reference view, displaying the upgraded reference view, and updating the selected surface in the upgraded reference view.
