Consistent Phase Estimation for Recovering Depth From Moiré Interferograms
نویسنده
چکیده
Moiré interferometry is a common tool if depth estimation from a single image frame is desired. It uses the interference of periodic patterns to measure the topology of a given surface. The actual depth estimation relies on the consistent phase estimation from the interferogram. We show that this task can be simplified by estimating the image phase and the local image orientation simultaneously, followed by a processing step called orientation unwrapping which is introduced in this paper. We compare two methods for extracting image phase and orientation and present experimental results.

Depth from Defocus via Discriminative Metric Learning
In this paper, we propose a discriminative learning-based method for recovering the depth of a scene from multiple defocused images. The proposed method consists of a discriminative learning phase and a depth estimation phase. In the discriminative learning phase, we formalize depth from defocus (DFD) as a multi-class classification problem which can be solved by learning the discriminative met...
متن کاملPhase-resolved correlation and its application to analysis of low-coherence interferograms.
A new signal-processing technique is proposed that involves a phase-resolved correlation method that one can use to determine the phase distribution of low-coherence interferograms. This method improves the sensitivity and resolution of low-coherence interferometers. The depth structure of an aluminum oxide-coated aluminum mirror was determined by use of a low-coherence interferometer with this...
متن کاملRiesz Transform for the Isotropic Estimation of the Local Phase of Moiré Interferograms
The estimation of the local phase and local amplitude of 1-D signals can be realized by the construction of the analytic signal. This includes the evaluation of the signal’s Hilbert transform, which performs a phase shift. In the past, different definitions of the analytic signal of multidimensional signals have been proposed, all of which are based on different combinations of partial and tota...
