Abstract

This paper concerns the method of estimation of one of the initial parameters for stereo image processing - the maximum expected disparity value. An automatic assessment of this parameter would benefit in improvement of automation and performance of stereo methods. The authors have developed an improved version of the heuristic method of estimation of the maximum disparity value for real stereo images. It is based on statistical analysis of the spatial correlation between stereo images - the so called image variograms, used so far only to single images and extended to the processing of stereo views by authors of this paper.
