Claim One:
1. A method for processing image data, the method comprising: receiving, by a computing device, captured image data representing a visual depiction of a scene at a first time; receiving, by the computing device, historical image data representing at least one other visual depiction of at least a portion of the scene at at least one other time; generating, by the computing device, a virtual view of the scene, including: warping at least a portion of the historical image data onto the captured image data according to a motion model, wherein the warping includes: estimating the warping for at least a portion of the scene; splitting at least the portion of the scene into a plurality of regions according to a recursive region splitting process that employs determinations of matched and unmatched points between the captured image data and the historical image data; and performing a local refinement of the estimated warping on a per-region basis; and outputting the generated virtual view of the scene.
