Abstract
A method for converting a 2D image into a 3D image includes receiving the 2D image; determining whether the received 2D image is a portrait, wherein the portrait can be a face portrait or a non-face portrait; if the received 2D image is determined to be a portrait, creating a disparity between a left eye image and a right eye image based on a local gradient and a spatial location; generating the 3D image based on the created disparity; and outputting the generated 3D image.
