Resumen

Dense stereo matching has been widely used in photogrammetry and computer vision applications. Even though it has a long research history, dense stereo matching is still challenging for occluded, textureless and discontinuous regions. This paper proposed an efficient and effective matching cost measurement and an adaptive shape guided filter-based matching cost aggregation method to improve the stereo matching performance for large textureless regions. At first, an efficient matching cost function combining enhanced image gradient-based matching cost and improved census transform-based matching cost is introduced. This proposed matching cost function is robust against radiometric variations and textureless regions. Following this, an adaptive shape cross-based window is constructed for each pixel and a modified guided filter based on this adaptive shape window is implemented for cost aggregation. The final disparity map is obtained after disparity selection and multiple steps disparity refinement. Experiments were conducted on the Middlebury benchmark dataset to evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed cost measurement and cost aggregation strategy. The experimental results demonstrated that the average matching error rate on Middlebury standard image pairs is 9.40%. Compared with the traditional guided filter-based stereo matching method, the proposed method achieved a better matching result in textureless regions.
