Claim:
1. An image processing method comprising: generating a degree-of-attention map for a stereoscopic input image; generating a histogram of a degree of attention to the input image and a disparity value for stereovision from each pixel of the input image based on the degree-of-attention map and a disparity map of the input image; weighting, in the histogram, a disparity value of at least one pixel having a high degree of attention to form a weighted histogram, wherein the disparity value of the at least one pixel is increased in an area near the disparity value having the high degree of attention and is held constant or decreased outside the area near the disparity value having the high degree of attention; and generating a conversion table for converting an input disparity value for the input image into an output disparity value based on the weighted histogram.
