Abstract

Modern camera calibration and multiview stereo techniques enable users to smoothly navigate between different views of a scene captured using standard cameras. The underlying automatic 3D reconstruction methods work well for buildings and regular structures but often fail on vegetation, vehicles, and other complex geometry present in everyday urban scenes. Consequently, missing depth information makes Image-Based Rendering (IBR) for such scenes very challenging. Our goal is to provide plausible free-viewpoint navigation for such datasets. To do this, we introduce a new IBR algorithm that is robust to missing or unreliable geometry, providing plausible novel views even in regions quite far from the input camera positions. We first oversegment the input images, creating superpixels of homogeneous color content which often tends to preserve depth discontinuities. We then introduce a depth synthesis approach for poorly reconstructed regions based on a graph structure on the oversegmentation and appropriate traversal of the graph. The superpixels augmented with synthesized depth allow us to define a local shape-preserving warp which compensates for inaccurate depth. Our rendering algorithm blends the warped images, and generates plausible image-based novel views for our challenging target scenes. Our results demonstrate novel view synthesis in real time for multiple challenging scenes with significant depth complexity, providing a convincing immersive navigation experience.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
