Shape from focus

SK Nayar, Y Nakagawa - IEEE Transactions on Pattern …, 1994 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
The shape from focus method presented here uses different focus levels to obtain a
sequence of object images. The sum-modified-Laplacian (SML) operator is developed to …

Depth from defocus: A spatial domain approach

M Subbarao, G Surya - International Journal of computer vision, 1994 - Springer
A new method named STM is described for determining distance of objects and rapid
autofocusing of camera systems. STM uses image defocus information and is based on a …

Microscopic shape from focus using active illumination

M Noguchi, SK Nayar - Proceedings of 12th International …, 1994 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
Shape from focus relies on surface texture for the computation of depth. In many real-world
applications, surfaces can be smoothly shaded and lacking in detectable texture. In such …

Simple range cameras based on focal error

A Pentland, S Scherock, T Darrell, B Girod - JOSA A, 1994 - opg.optica.org
We describe research on two imaging range sensors that use defocus to estimate range.
One technique is completely passive and provides dense range measurements in textured …

Computing depth from out-of-focus blur using a local frequency representation

M Gokstorp - Proceedings of 12th International Conference on …, 1994 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
We present a method to compute depth from the amount of defocus in two images obtained
from the same view-point but with different camera parameter settings. The change in …

Nonlinear global and local document degradation models

T Kanungo, RM Haralick… - International Journal of …, 1994 - Wiley Online Library
Two sources of document degradation are modeled:(1) perspective distortion that occurs
while photocopying or scanning thick, bound documents; and (2) degradation due to …

Interpolation using wavelet bases

AP Pentland - IEEE Transactions on Pattern Analysis and …, 1994 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
Efficient solutions to regularization problems can be obtained using orthogonal wavelet
bases for preconditioning. Good approximate solutions can be obtained in only two or three …

Estimation of edge parameters and image blur using polynomial transforms

V Kayargadde, JB Martens - CVGIP: Graphical models and image …, 1994 - Elsevier
A method is presented for detecting blurred edges in images and for estimating the following
edge parameters: position, orientation, amplitude, mean value, and edge slope. The method …

Leukocyte classifications by size functions

M Ferri, S Lombardini, C Pallotti - Proceedings of 1994 IEEE …, 1994 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
Leukocytes are divided into classes. Their automatic classification is accomplished by
means of site functions, based on two measuring functions defined expressly for taking into …

Depth estimation from a sequence of monocular images with known camera motion

H Zhuang, R Sudhakar, J Shieh - Robotics and autonomous systems, 1994 - Elsevier
This paper reports an approach of computing depth maps from a monocular image
sequence, under the assumption that the camera motion is known. The direct depth …
