• Abstract: This paper presents a novel line-aware rectification network (LaRecNet) to address the problem of fisheye distortion rectification based on the classical observation that straight lines in 3D space should be still straight in image planes. Specifically, the proposed LaRecNet contains three sequential modules to (1) learn the distorted straight lines from fisheye images; (2) estimate the distortion parameters from the learned heatmaps and the image appearance; and (3) rectify the input images via a proposed differentiable rectification layer. To better train and evaluate the proposed model, we create a synthetic line-rich fisheye (SLF) dataset that contains the distortion parameters and well-annotated distorted straight lines of fisheye images. The proposed method enables us to simultaneously calibrate the geometric distortion parameters and rectify fisheye images. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our model achieves state-of-the-art performance in terms of both geometric accuracy and image quality on several evaluation metrics. In particular, the images rectified by LaRecNet achieve an average reprojection error of 0.33 pixels on the SLF dataset and produce the highest peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) and structure similarity index (SSIM) compared with the groundtruth.

  We propose a distortion vector map (DVM) that measures the degree and direction of local distortion. By learning the DVM, the model can independently identify local distortions at each pixel without relying on global distortion patterns. In the pre-training stage, it predicts the distortion vector map and perceives the local distortion features of each pixel. In the fine-tuning stage, it predicts a pixel-wise flow map for deviated fisheye image rectification.
