Abstract
A system and method of generating three-dimensional (3D) depth information is disclosed. The vanishing point of a two-dimensional (2D) input image is detected based on vanishing lines. The 2D image is classified and segmented into structures based on detected edges. The classified structures are then respectively assigned depth information.

13. A circuit-implemented system for generating three-dimensional (3D) depth information, comprising:
-
a determiner that is coupled or configured to input first information corresponding to a two-dimensional (2D) image, the determiner being operable to determine a vanishing point of the two 2D image based upon vanishing lines of the 2D image information; a classifier coupled or configured to input second information corresponding to the 2D image, the classifier being formed with a capability of using the second information to classify one or more structures based upon edges of the 2D image; and a depth assignment unit operatively coupled to the determiner and the classifier and being configured to assign depth information to the one or more classified structures using the vanishing point.
