Fast and Accurate Light Field View Synthesis by Optimizing Input View Selection

Dynamic Field of View in a Tomographic Light Field Display

We also demonstrate the effectiveness of SART in generating dynamic real-time scenes (20 fps on an Nvidia Pascal GPU). Unlike traditional 2D displays, light field displays provide binocular depth cues such as high-resolution motion parallax, occlusion, translucency, and specularity. In particular attenuation-based light field displays provide an inexpensive means by which to produce these unenc...

View Interpolation by Image Synthesis

View Synthesis by Appearance Flow

Given one or more images of an object (or a scene), is it possible to synthesize a new image of the same instance observed from an arbitrary viewpoint? In this paper, we attempt to tackle this problem, known as novel view synthesis, by re-formulating it as a pixel copying task that avoids the notorious difficulties of generating pixels from scratch. Our approach is built on the observation that...

Multi-view Recognition Using Weighted View Selection

In this paper, we present an algorithm for multi-view recognition in a distributed camera setting that learns which viewpoints are most discriminative for particular instances of ambiguity. Our method is built on top of 2D recognition algorithms and casts view selection as the problem of optimizing kernel weights in multiple kernel learning. The main contribution is a locality-sensitive meta-tr...

Field of view for near-field aperture synthesis imaging.

Aperture synthesis techniques are increasingly being employed to provide high angular resolution images in situations where the object of interest is in the near field of the interferometric array. Previous work has showed that an aperture synthesis array can be refocused on an object in the near field of an array, provided that the object is smaller than the effective Fresnel zone size corresp...
