Abstract
In this paper, we propose some efficient multi-view stereo methods for accurate and complete depth map estimation. We first present our basic methods with Adaptive Checkerboard sampling and Multi-Hypothesis joint view selection (ACMH & ACMH+). Based on our basic models, we develop two frameworks to deal with the depth estimation of ambiguous regions (especially low-textured areas) from two different perspectives: multi-scale information fusion and planar geometric clue assistance. For the former one, we propose a multi-scale geometric consistency guidance framework (ACMM) to obtain the reliable depth estimates for low-textured areas at coarser scales and guarantee that they can be propagated to finer scales. For the latter one, we propose a planar prior assisted framework (ACMP). We utilize a probabilistic graphical model to contribute a novel multi-view aggregated matching cost. At last, by taking advantage of the above frameworks, we further design a multi-scale geometric consistency guided and planar prior assisted multi-view stereo (ACMMP). This greatly enhances the discrimination of ambiguous regions and helps their depth sensing. Experiments on extensive datasets show our methods achieve state-of-the-art performance, recovering the depth estimation not only in low-textured areas but also in details.
