produce a depth image

Simplest Case: Parallel images
• Image planes of cameras
are parallel to each other
and to the baseline
• Camera centers are at
same height
• Focal lengths are the
same

Simplest Case: Parallel images
• Image planes of cameras
are parallel to each other

• Camera centers are at
same height
• Focal lengths are the

• Then, epipolar lines fall
along the horizontal scan

Stereo: epipolar geometry
• for two images (or images with collinear camera
centers), can find epipolar lines
• epipolar lines are the projection of the pencil of
planes passing through the centers
• Rectification: warping the input images
(perspective transformation) so that epipolar lines
are horizontal
slide: R. Szeliski
Rectification
• Project each image onto same plane, which is
parallel to the epipole
• Resample lines (and shear/stretch) to place lines in
correspondence, and minimize distortion
• [Loop and Zhang, CVPR’99]
slide: R. Szeliski
Rectification
BAD!

Rectification
GOOD!
slide: R. Szeliski
Problem: Rectification for forward moving cameras
• Required image can become very large (infinitely
large) when the epipole is in the image
• Alternative rectifications are available using
epipolar lines directly in the images

ICCV
Your basic stereo algorithm
For each epipolar line
For each pixel in the left image
• compare with every pixel on same epipolar line in right image
• pick pixel with minimum match cost
Improvement: match windows
•
This should look familar...
slide: R. Szeliski
Finding correspondences
• apply feature matching criterion (e.g.,
correlation or Lucas-Kanade) at all pixels
simultaneously
• search only over epipolar lines (many fewer
candidate positions)

Correspondence search

• Slide a window along the right scanline and
compare contents of that window with the
reference window in the left image

How can we improve window-based matching?
• The similarity constraint is local (each reference
window is matched independently)
• Need to enforce non-local correspondence
constraints
slide: S. Lazebnik
Non-local constraints
• Uniqueness
o For any point in one image, there should be at most one matching
point in the other image
slide: S. Lazebnik
Non-local constraints
• Uniqueness
o For any point in one image, there should be at most one matching point
in the other image
• Ordering
o Corresponding points should be in the same order in both views
slide: S. Lazebnik
Non-local constraints
• Uniqueness
o For any point in one image, there should be at most one matching point
in the other image
• Ordering
o Corresponding points should be in the same order in both views
Ordering constraint doesn’t hold
slide: S. Lazebnik
Non-local constraints
• Uniqueness
o For any point in one image, there should be at most one matching point
in the other image
• Ordering
o Corresponding points should be in the same order in both views
• Smoothness
o We expect disparity values to change slowly (for the most part)
slide: S. Lazebnik
Scanline stereo
• Try to coherently match pixels on the entire scanline
• Different scanlines are still optimized independently

• Can’t use dynamic programming to find spatially
coherent disparities/ correspondences on a 2D

Aligning range images
• A single range scan is not sufficient to describe a
complex surface
• Need techniques to register multiple range images
