The role of the baseline in depth reconstruction accuracy

one pixel

uncertainty of

scenepoint

Optical axes of the two cameras need not be parallel

• Field of view decreases with increase in baseline and vergence

• Accuracy increases with baseline and vergence

The correspondence problem

• …, so if we could find the corresponding

points in two images, we could estimate

relative depth…

• Epipolar geometry constrained our search, but

we still have to solve the correspondence

problem.

• Goal/motivation: Establish densecorrespondences between the views of a stereo pair, given the epipolar constraint, so as to perform 3D reconstruction

Matching cost

Correspondence search

• Slide a window along the right scanline and

compare contents of that window with the

reference window in the left image

• Matching cost: SSD or normalized correlation

Basic stereo matching algorithm

• If necessary, rectify the two stereo images to transform

epipolar lines into scanlines

• For each pixel x in the first image

– Find corresponding epipolar scanline in the right image

– Examine all pixels on the scanline and pick the best match x’

– Compute disparity x–x’ and set depth(x) = B*f/(x–x’)

Effect of window size

– Smaller window

+ More detail

• More noise

– Larger window

+ Smoother disparity maps

• Less detail

Results with window search

Window-based matching Ground truth

Failures of correspondence search

Textureless surfaces Occlusions, repetition

Non-Lambertian surfaces, specularities…

How can we improve window-based matching?

• The similarity constraint is local (each

reference window is matched

independently)

• Need to enforce non-local

correspondence constraints

Non-local constraints• Uniqueness

– For any point in one image, there should be at

most one matching point in the other image

Non-local constraints• Uniqueness

– For any point in one image, there should be at most

one matching point in the other image

• Ordering

– Corresponding points should be in the same order in

both views

Non-local constraints

• Uniqueness

– For any point in one image, there should be at

most one matching point in the other image

• Ordering

– Corresponding points should be in the same

order in both views

• Smoothness

– We expect disparity values to change slowly

(for the most part)

Scanline stereo

• Try to coherently match pixels on the

entire scanline

• Different scanlines are still optimized

Can be implemented with dynamic programming Ohta & Kanade ’85, Cox et al. ’96:

C(i,j) = min{C(i-1,j)+coccl, C(i,j-1)+coccl, C(i-1,j-1)+ccorr(i,j)}

• No inter scan-line consistency is enforced

• Energy functions of this form can be minimized using

Active stereo with structured light

• Project “structured” light patterns onto the object

• Simplifies the correspondence problem

• Allows us to use only one camera

Laser scanning

Optical triangulation

• Project a single stripe of laser light

• Scan it across the surface of the object

• This is a very precise version of structured light scanning

Aligning range images

• A single range scan is not sufficient to describe a

complex surface

• Need techniques to register multiple range images

TrueScene

• A photo-consistent scene is a scene that exactly

reproduces your input images from the same

camera viewpoints

• You can’t use your input cameras and images to

tell the difference between a photo-consistent

scene and the true scene

Which shape do you get?

• The Photo Hull is the UNION of all photo-consistent scenes in V

– It is a photo-consistent scene reconstruction

– Tightest possible bound on the true scene

Visibility Problem: in which images is each voxel visible?

Space Carving

•Space Carving Algorithm

Image 1 Image N

…...

• Initialize to a volume V containing the true scene

• Repeat until convergence

• Choose a voxel on the outside of the volume

• Carve if not photo-consistent

• Project to visible input images

Space Carving Algorithm

• The Basic Algorithm is Unwieldy

– Complex update procedure

• Alternative: Multi-Pass Plane Sweep

– Efficient, can use texture-mapping hardware

– Converges quickly in practice

– Easy to implement

Why use silhouettes?

• Can be computed robustly

• Can be computed efficiently

• The case of binary images: a voxel is

photo-consistent if it lies inside the object’s

silhouette in all views

Reconstruction from Silhouettes

Binary Images

• The case of binary images: a voxel is photo-

consistent if it lies inside the object’s silhouette

in all views

Reconstruction from Silhouettes

Binary Images

Finding the silhouette-consistent shape (visual hull):

• Backproject each silhouette

• Intersect backprojected volumes

Volume intersection

• Reconstruction Contains the True Scene

– But is generally not the same

• Color voxel black if on silhouette in every image

Properties of Volume Intersection

• Pros

– Easy to implement

• Cons

– No concavities

– Reconstruction is not photo-consistent if

texture information is available

– Requires silhouette extraction

Carved visual hulls• The visual hull is a good starting point for

optimizing photo-consistency

– Easy to compute

– Tight outer boundary of the object

– Parts of the visual hull (rims) already lie on the surface

and are already photo-consistent

• Thus:

Modeling, ECCV 2006.

1. Compute visual hull

2. Carve the visual hull to optimize photo-consistency
