Stereo matching is one of the most active research areas in computer vision. While a large
number of algorithms for stereo correspondence have been developed, relatively little work …

Privacy is a serious concern when microdata need to be released for ad hoc analyses. The
privacy goals of existing privacy protection approaches (eg, k-anonymity and l-diversity) are …

This survey is mainly motivated by the increased availability and use of panoramic image
acquisition devices, in computer vision and various of its applications. Different technologies …

An efficient algorithmic solution to the classical five-point relative pose problem is presented.
The problem is to find the possible solutions for relative camera motion between two …

An omnistereo panorama consists of a pair of panoramic images, where one panorama is
for the left eye and another panorama is for the right eye. The panoramic stereo pair …

Image-based rendering (IBR) refers to a collection of techniques and representations that
allow 3D scenes and objects to be visualized in a realistic way without full 3D model …

Large-scale urban modeling technologies use a variety of sensors and data acquisition
techniques. The authors categorize current approaches and describe their advantages and …

A theory of stereo image formation is presented that enables a complete classification of all
possible stereo views, including non-perspective varieties. Towards this end, the notion of …
