Abstract:<p><strong>Abstract.</strong> Reconstruction of dense photogrammetric point clouds is often based on depth estimation of rectified image pairs by means of pixel-wise matching. The main drawback lies in the high computational complexity compared to that of the relatively straightforward task of laser triangulation. Dense image matching needs oriented and rectified images and looks for point correspondences between them. The search for these correspondences is based on two assumptions: pixels a… Show more
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.
