Quantization error in stereo imaging system with noise distributions

摘要

The problem of estimating quantization error in 2D images is an inherent problem in computer vision. The outcome of this problem is directly related to the error in reconstructed 3D position coordinates of an object. Thus estimation of quantization error has its own importance in stereo vision. Although the quantization error cannot be controlled fully, still statistical error analysis helps us to measure the performance of stereo systems that relies on the imaging parameters. Generally, it is assumed that the quantization error in 2D images is distributed uniformly that need not to be true from a practical aspect. In this paper, we have incorporated noise distributions (Triangular and Trapezoidal) for the stochastic error analysis of the quantization error in stereo imaging systems. For the validation of the theoretical analysis, the detailed simulation study is carried out by considering different cases.
