Which Slightly Different View is the Right One?

摘要

In the paper we consider a problem of the next view planning using stereo vision. Our objective is to resolve the ambiguities of occluded regions -- parts of the scene which are acquired only in a one of the images of the two stereo views. We assume a general scene. The next view problem is first analyzed under the assumption that the next camera location can lie only in the particular epipolar plane, then we extend the analysis to a general set of possible camera locations. An important feature of the proposed approach is that is does not require 3-D reconstruction of the scene. Experimental results demonstrate the proposed solution.
