Problems solved by technology

[0004] The traditional fixed window has the problem of changing the size of the window: if the window is too small, the matching cost will be too low, and error matching will easily occur in low-texture areas; if the window is too la

Embodiment Construction

[0024] The present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0025] The present invention proposes a matching method based on improved gradient matching cost and adaptive window, which mainly includes four steps.

[0026] Step 1: Matching cost calculation. The specific implementation method is as follows:

[0027] The image gradient is defined as the first-order partial derivative of the image along the x and y directions:

[0028] G = G x G y = ∂ I ∂ x ...

Abstract

The invention provides a stereo matching method based on an improved gradient and an adaptive window, and aims to solve the problem that an existing local stereo matching algorithm is low in precision and is influenced by amplitude distortion easily. Firstly, on the basis that a traditional gradient vector only contains amplitude information, phase information is introduced, conversion is carried out on the original matching cost, and abnormal values are further eliminated. Then, the adaptive window can be built through the criss-cross adaptive window generation method according to the color and spatial position relation between adjacent pixels, wherein a large window is provided for a low-texture area to improve matching precision, a small window is generated in a high-texture area to protect detail information of the edge of an object and the like, and the aggregated cost is selected according to the Winner-Takes-All strategy so that a disparity value corresponding to the minimum value of the total cost can serve as an initial matching result. Finally, a disparity refinement method based on a local disparity histogram is provided, and a high-precision disparity map is obtained. As is shown in experimental results, the stereo matching method is high in machining precision and has high robustness under the condition of amplitude distortion.

Description

Technical field: [0001] The present invention relates to a binocular image stereo matching method for obtaining a depth map, in particular to a stereo matching method based on improved gradients and adaptive windows. The depth map results obtained by the present invention can be further applied to visual measurement, three-dimensional reconstruction, Fields such as virtual viewpoint image rendering. Background technique: [0002] Stereo matching is a classic problem in computer vision and has always been a research hotspot. Over the years, researchers have proposed a large number of algorithms to try to solve this problem, but due to the pathological nature of the problem itself, there is no perfect solution yet. Some typical Stereo Matching Algorithm gives a comprehensive overview of various main methods. They summarized the stereo matching process into four steps: matching cost calculation, matching cost aggregation, initial disparity calculation and disparity refinemen...
