Abstract :
We present a method for region identification in multiple
images. A set of regions in different images and the
correspondences on their boundaries can be thought of as
a boundary in the multi-dimensional space formed by the
product of the individual image domains. We minimize an
energy functional on the space of such boundaries, thereby
identifying simultaneously both the optimal regions in each
image and the optimal correspondences on their boundaries.
We use a ratio form for the energy functional, thus
enabling the global minimization of the energy functional
using a polynomial time graph algorithm, among other desirable
properties. We choose a simple form for this energy
that favours boundaries that lie on high intensity gradients
in each image, while encouraging correspondences between
boundaries in different images that match intensity values.
The latter tendency is weighted by a novel heuristic energy
that encourages the boundaries to lie on disparity or optical
flow discontinuities, although no dense optical flow or
disparity map is computed. |
