Compensated Visual Hull with GPU-Based Optimization
نویسندگان
چکیده
We propose an advanced visual hull technique to compensate for outliers using the reliabilities of silhouettes. The proposed method consists of a foreground extraction technique with multiple thresholds based on the Generalized Gaussian Family model and a compensated visual hull algorithm. We proved that the proposed technique constructs a compact visual hull even in the presence of segmentation errors and occlusions. The 3D reconstruction and rendering processes are implemented on a graphics processing unit to greatly accelerate computation time.

3D Reconstruction with Automatic Foreground Segmentation from Multi-view Images Acquired from a Mobile Device
We propose a novel foreground object segmentation algorithm for a silhouette-based 3D reconstruction system. Our system requires several multi-view images as input to reconstruct a complete 3D model. The proposed foreground segmentation algorithm is based on graph-cut optimization with the energy function developed for planar background assumption. We parallelize parts of our program with GPU p...
متن کاملReduced Depth and Visual Hulls of Complex 3D Scenes
Depth and visual hulls are useful for quick reconstruction and rendering of a 3D object based on a number of reference views. However, for many scenes, especially multi-object, these hulls may contain significant artifacts known as phantom geometry. In depth hulls the phantom geometry appears behind the scene objects in regions occluded from all the reference views. In visual hulls the phantom ...
متن کاملMulti-GPU Image-based Visual Hull Rendering
Many virtual mirror and telepresence applications require novel viewpoint synthesis with little latency to user motion. Image-based visual hull (IBVH) rendering is capable of rendering arbitrary views from segmented images without an explicit intermediate data representation, such as a mesh or a voxel grid. By computing depth images directly from the silhouette images, it usually outperforms in...
متن کاملA Fast Surface-Based Visual Hull Reconstruction
In this paper, we describe a new method for shape reconstruction from a set of silhouette images. We propose a method for traversing the depth layers of the projected viewing cones from all viewpoints based on the principle of the Constructive Solid Geometry (CSG). Taking advantage of the modern Graphics Processing Units (GPU), the proposed CSG-like method achieves a fast full reconstruction of...
متن کاملFast Visual Hull and Stereo Matching on Cuda
Stereo matching and visual hull are techniques that are often used in 3D reconstruction. This paper presents and evaluates implementations of these algorithms on the GPU using the CUDA architecture. Experimental results show that both, visual hull and stereo matching, have much to gain in terms of speed from the data parallel execution model.
