search range
- Authors: Jiazhi Liu and Feng Liu
- Abstract summary: Most stereo matching methods have poor generalization performance and require a fixed disparity search range.
We present a new stereo matching pipeline that first computes semi-dense disparity maps based on binocular disparity, and then completes the rest depending on monocular cues.

- Abstract: Stereo matching is an essential basis for various applications, but most
stereo matching methods have poor generalization performance and require a
fixed disparity search range. Moreover, current stereo matching methods focus
on the scenes that only have positive disparities, but ignore the scenes that
contain both positive and negative disparities, such as 3D movies. In this
paper, we present a new stereo matching pipeline that first computes semi-dense
disparity maps based on binocular disparity, and then completes the rest
depending on monocular cues. The new stereo matching pipeline have the
following advantages: It 1) has better generalization performance than most of
the current stereo matching methods; 2) relaxes the limitation of a fixed
disparity search range; 3) can handle the scenes that involve both positive and
negative disparities, which has more potential applications, such as view
synthesis in 3D multimedia and VR/AR. Experimental results demonstrate the
effectiveness of our new stereo matching pipeline.

The proposed stereo-confidence method is built upon the idea that any shift in a stereo-image pair should be updated in a corresponding amount shift in the disparity map.
By comparing the desirable and predicted disparity profiles, we can quantify the level of matching ambiguity between left and right images for confidence measurement.

Real-time Stereo Matching is a cornerstone algorithm for many Extended Reality (XR) applications, such as indoor 3D understanding, video pass-through, and mixed-reality games.
One of the major difficulties is the lack of high-quality indoor video stereo training datasets captured by head-mounted VR/AR glasses.
We introduce a novel video stereo synthetic dataset that comprises renderings of various indoor scenes and realistic camera motion captured by a 6-DoF moving VR/AR head-mounted display (HMD).
This facilitates the evaluation of existing approaches and promotes further research on indoor augmented reality scenarios.
