LEARNING-BASED MATCHING FOR ACTIVE STEREO SYSTEMS

摘要

A first and second image of a scene are captured. Each of a plurality of pixels in the first image is associated with a disparity value. An image patch associated with each of the plurality of pixels of the first image and the second image is mapped into a binary vector. Thus, values of pixels in an image are mapped to a binary space using a function that preserves characteristics of values of the pixels. The difference between the binary vector associated with each of the plurality of pixels of the first image and its corresponding binary vector in the second image designated by the disparity value associated with each of the plurality of pixels of the first image is determined. Based on the determined difference between binary vectors, correspondence between the plurality of pixels of the first image and the second image is established.
