Image Synthesis and Occlusion Removal of Intermediate Views by Stereo Matching
نویسندگان
چکیده
We suggest an efficient real-time method for removing occlusions when synthesizing intermediate views from two stereo images by stereo matching algorithm. The proposed method can carry out the correction of noise resulting from stereo matching, removal of occlusions to achieve high fidelity rendering, and parallel computing to achieve realtime synthesis. The proposed algorithm is compared with state-of-the-art algorithms to show its improved performance in terms of rendering and computational speed.

Analysis of Multi-view Generation from Stereoscopic Images using the Depth Map
In this work, we generate multi-view images from stereoscopic texture images. After we estimate a disparity map using a stereo matching method, we detect an occlusion area in the acquired disparity map and refine the initial disparity values of the occlusion area. The refined disparity map is enhanced by a joint bilateral filter for boundary matching to improve the quality of synthesized multi-...
متن کاملNew Pseudo-CT Generation Approach from Magnetic Resonance Imaging using a Local Texture Descriptor
Background: One of the challenges of PET/MRI combined systems is to derive an attenuation map to correct the PET image. For that, the pseudo-CT image could be used to correct the attenuation. Until now, most existing scientific researches construct this pseudo-CT image using the registration techniques. However, these techniques suffer from the local minima of the non-rigid deformation energy f...

In an immersive tele-presence environment a 3D remote real scene is projected from the viewpoint of the local user. This 3D world is acquired through stereo reconstruction at the remote site. In this paper, we start a performance analysis of stereo algorithms with respect to the task of immersive visualization. As opposed to usual monocular image based rendering, we are also interested in the d...

A method for solving the stereo matching problem in the presence of large occlusion is presented. A data structure | the disparity space image | is de ned to facilitate the description of the e ects of occlusion on the stereo matching process and in particular on dynammic programming (DP) solutions that nd matches and occlusions simultaneously. We signi cantly improve upon existing DP stereo ma...
متن کاملDisparity Refinement near the Object Boundaries for Virtual-View Quality Enhancement
Stereo matching algorithm is usually used to obtain a disparity map from a pair of images. However, the disparity map obtained by using stereo matching contains lots of noise and error regions. In this paper, we propose a virtual-view synthesis algorithm using disparity refinement in order to improve the quality of the synthesized image. First, the error region is detected by examining the cons...
