Abstract
- Existing light field depth map estimation approaches only utilize partial angular views in occlusion areas and local spatial dependencies in the optimization. This paper proposes a novel two-stage light field depth estimation method via graph spectral analysis to exploit the complete correlations and dependencies within angular patches and spatial images. The initial depth map estimation leverages the undirected graph to jointly consider occluded and unoccluded views within each angular patch. The estimated depth minimizes the structural incoherence of its corresponding angular patch with the focused one by evaluating the highest graph frequency component. Subsequently, depth map refinement optimizes the initial depth map with the color consistency and smoothness formulated by weighted adjacency matrix. The structural constraints are efficiently employed using low-pass graph filtering with Chebyshev polynomial approximation. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method improves the depth map estimation, especially in the edge regions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
