This paper presented a novel depth map generation method -the short-term motion assisted color segmentation, which combines the pictorial, monocular and binocular depth cues of human vision. The proposed method utilizes a motion/edge registration technique to avoid the motion jitter error in common motion segmentation. And the motion/image segment adaptation algorithm matches the connected components with the motion segments. Even for static scene, the connected componet algorithm is still working for the depth map generation. The experimental results show that the adaptation of motion and image segmentation improves quality and smoothness of the depth map both in the spatial and temporal domain.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
