A Stereo Matching Algorithm Based on Multiresolution and Epipolar Constraint
Wei Zhang, Quanbing Zhang, Lei Qu, Wei Sui · 2005
Stereo matching is one of the most active research areas in computer vision. In this paper, a fast stereo matching algorithm by means of epipolar constraint and multiresolution approach was presented. The searching scope of corresponding pixels in the original image is obtained and has diminished a lot based on multiresolution approach. Then intensity correlation principle and epipolar constraint can be applied to get the stereo matching results in this scope. In this way, we reduce the search time for correspondence and ensure the validity of matching. The experimental results show this algorithm is effective and efficient.
