Qi), gmshi@x 1 Principal corresponding author. Depth acquisition becomes inexpensive after the revolutionary invention of Kinect. For computer vision applications, depth maps captured by Kinect require additional processing to fill up missing parts. However, conventional inpainting methods for color images cannot be applied directly to depth maps as there are not enough cues to make accurate inference about scene structures. In this paper, we propose a novel fusion based inpainting method to improve depth maps. The proposed fusion strategy integrates conventional inpainting with the recently developed non-local filtering scheme. The good balance between depth and color information guarantees an accurate inpainting result. Experimental results show the mean absolute error of the proposed method is about 20 mm, which is comparable to the precision of the Kinect sensor. 2012 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Object Removal by Depth-guided Inpainting∗
Object removal by image inpainting aims at the visual uniformity of the inpainted blanks among their surroundings. Most inpainting algorithms pursue the structure continuity and texture similarity only in color. In this paper we take the view depth continuity into account and propose a depth-guided inpainting algorithm, in which a single color image and its associated disparity map are inpainte...
متن کاملDepth Map Inpainting under a Second-Order Smoothness Prior
Many 3D reconstruction methods produce incomplete depth maps. Depth map inpainting can generate visually plausible structures for the missing areas. We present an inpainting method that encourages at surfaces without favouring fronto-parallel planes. Moreover, it uses a color image to guide the inpainting and align color and depth edges. We implement the algorithm e ciently through graph-cuts. ...
متن کاملDepth-Adaptive Inpainting Algorithm for 3D Video Sequences
Inpainting methods attempt to reconstruct lost or destroyed image information as plausibly and sensibly to the human eye as possible. Information from the neighboring area is extrapolated into unkown image regions. This technique is also employed in view synthesis for 3D videos as well. Warping given scene views to other viewingpoints causes disocclusion artifacts to occur in the synthesized im...
متن کاملImage Guided Cost Aggregation for Hierarchical Depth Map Fusion
Estimating depth from a video sequence is still a challenging task in computer vision with numerous applications. Like other authors we utilize two major concepts developed in this field to achieve that task which are the hierarchical estimation of depth within an image pyramid as well as the fusion of depth maps from different views. We compare the application of various local matching methods...
متن کاملJoint Projection Filling method for occlusion handling in Depth-Image-Based Rendering
This paper addresses the disocclusion problem which may occur when using Depth-Image-Based Rendering (DIBR) techniques in 3DTV and Free-Viewpoint TV applications. A new DIBR technique is proposed, which combines three methods: a Joint Projection Filling (JPF) method to handle disocclusions in synthesized depth maps; a backward projection to synthesize virtual views; and a full-Z depth-aided inp...
