Use of Dynamic Programming for Dense Depth Estimation from Uncalibrated Image Sets

چکیده
An e cient algorithm to accurately estimate depth and occluded points from two or more uncalibrated views is presented. The basic concept is to apply a dynamic programming technique for displacement estimation, after estimating the exact positions of two corresponding epipolar lines. The ultimate goal is to be able to automatically generate accurate 3-D models from two or more views of a scene obtained from di erent viewing angles or even from standard monoscopic image sequences, without a-priori knowledge of the interior or exterior camera calibration parameters. Furthermore, the proposed approach provides a solution to the general correspondence problem for two or more uncalibrated camera views.

متن کاملLinear Depth Estimation from an Uncalibrated, Monocular Polarisation Image
We present a method for estimating surface height directly from a single polarisation image simply by solving a large, sparse system of linear equations. To do so, we show how to express polarisation constraints as equations that are linear in the unknown depth. The ambiguity in the surface normal azimuth angle is resolved globally when the optimal surface height is reconstructed. Our method is...
متن کاملDepth Estimation Analysis Using Sum of Absolute Difference Algorithm
Stereo vision is one of the methods that can yield depth information of the scene. It uses stereo image pairs from two cameras to produce disparity maps that can be easily turn into depth maps. It is assumed that both the left and right channels of the multiview image sequence are coded using block or object-based methods. A dynamic programming algorithm is used to estimate a disparity field be...

The goal of this work is to create a system for improving large architectures models with relatively few uncalibrated image sequences and produces interactively navigable and photorealistic 3D scene. The novel idea is based on the combination of spatial 3D vector data and uncalibrated image sequences to improve the fidelity of 3D architecture models in an extended urban area. First, the spatial...
متن کاملInitial Disparity Estimation Using Sparse Matching for Wide-baseline Dense Stereo
We propose a triangulation based initialization method for dense disparity estimation from uncalibrated wide-baseline image pairs using sparse correspondences. The method includes: (a) sparse correspondence retrieval, (b) Delaunay triangulation and homography estimation, and (c) obtaining a dense initial disparity map to initialize dense stereo algorithms. Comparison with existing methods demon...
