Abstract

Dense depth maps can be estimated in a Bayesian sense from multiple calibrated still images of a rigid scene relative to a reference view [1]. This well-established probabilistic framework is extended by adaptively refining a triangular meshing procedure and by automatic cross-validation of model parameters. The adaptive refinement strategy locally adjusts the triangular meshing according to the measured image data. The new method substantially outperforms the competing techniques both in terms of robustness and accuracy.
