Abstract: A 2D video to 3D video conversion system includes a video content analysis unit, a depth estimation unit, a post-processing unit, and a stereoscopic video generation unit. The video content analysis unit can analyze a 2D video datum and extract useful information including motion and color from the 2D video datum for depth estimation. The depth estimation unit is adapted for receiving the useful information, calculating motion cue and contrast cue for initial depth estimation, and generating an initial depth map. The post-processing unit is adapted for correcting the initial depth map in spatial domain and temporal domain to increase accuracy in spatial domain and depth continuity between adjacent time instances and for processing the caption in the video to generate a final depth map. The stereoscopic video generation unit is adapted for synthesizing 3D video datum from the final depth map and 2D video datum.

Abstract: A method to selectively amend a layout pattern is disclosed. First, a layout pattern including at least a first group and a second group is provided, wherein each one of the first group and the second group respectively includes multiple members. Second, a simulation procedure and an amendment procedure are respectively performed on all the members of the first group and the second group to obtain an amended first group and an amended second group. Then, the amended first group and the amended second group are verified as being on target or not. Afterwards, the layout pattern including the on target amended first group and the on target amended second group is output.
