Optimizing Disparity Candidates Space in Dense Stereo Matching

In this paper, a new approach for optimizing disparity candidates space is proposed for the solution of dense stereo matching problem. The main objectives of this approachare the reduction of average number of disparity candidates per pixel with low computational cost and high assurance of retaining the correct answer. These can be realized due to the effective use of multiple radial windows, i...

Advances in Computational Stereo

Extraction of three-dimensional structure of a scene from stereo images is a problem that has been studied by the computer vision community for decades. Early work focused on the fundamentals of image correspondence and stereo geometry. Stereo research has matured significantly throughout the years, and many advances in computational stereo continue to be made, allowing stereo to be applied to ...

Stereo pairs in Astrophysics

Stereoscopic visualization is seldom used in Astrophysical publications and presentations compared to other scientific fields, e.g., Biochemistry, where it has been recognized as a valuable tool for decades. We put forth the view that stereo pairs can be a useful tool for the Astrophysics community in communicating a truer representation of astrophysical data. Here, we review the main theoretic...

Divergent Stereo in AutonomousNavigation

This report presents some experiments of a real-time navigation system driven by two cameras pointing laterally to the navigation direction (Divergent Stereo). Similarly to what has been proposed in 11; 5], our approach 17; 19] assumes that, for navigation purposes, the driving information is not distance (as it is obtainable by a stereo setup) but motion and, more precisely, by the use of qual...
