Abstract

We present a practical 3D reconstruction method that guarantees robust visual hull construction in real environments where segmentation errors and occlusion exist. The proposed method consists of foreground extraction and reliability-based shape-from-silhouette, and they are connected by the intra-/inter-silhouette reliabilities. In foreground extraction, all regions are classified into four categories based on their intra-reliabilities. Then the reliability-based shape-from-silhouette technique reconstructs a visual hull by carving a 3D space based on the intra-/inter-silhouette reliabilities. The proposed method provides a reliable visual hull in real environments without much increment of the system complexity compared with conventional systems.
