A new method for extracting depth information from 2-dimensional images is propsed. The
depth structure of a scene is computed using measurements of the degree of blur in an …

Pentland recently proposed an algorithm for sensing scene depth Ъу measuring the amount
of defocus of an image. The algorithm is interesting in the sense that no correspondence …

A method is presented for depth recovery through the analysis of scene sharpness across
changing focus position. Modeling a defocused image as the application of a low pass filter …

This paper presents a depth recovery method that gives the depth of any scene from its
defocused images. The method combines depth from defocusing and depth from automatic …

In this paper we address the challenging problem of recovering the depth of a scene from a
single image using defocus cue. To achieve this, we first present a novel approach to …

A depth estimation algorithm proposed by AP Pentland (1987) is generalized. In the
proposed algorithm, the raw image data in the vicinity of the edge is used to estimate the …

A new method of recovering depth, which uses only one camera equipped with a zoom lens,
is presented. The gradient-based as well as the feature-based schemes for recovering depth …

This paper examines a novel source of depth information: focal gradients resulting from the
limited depth of field inherent in most optical systems. Previously, autofocus schemes have …

The concept of depth from focus involves calculating distances to points in an observed
scene by modeling the effect that the camera's focal parameters have on images acquired …
