非合焦画像からぼけを取り除くために符号化開口が有効であることが知られている.しかし,その開口形状の設計に関する研究は十分に行われていない.そこで本論文では実用的な設計法とその詳細な実装を示すことを目的とし,特に最適化に用いる遺伝的アルゴリズムの性能を大きく左右する交叉法の比較と評価を行う.また,ぼけ除去画像を認識に用いる場合,その画像の良し悪しは画質(視覚的品質)ではなくその後の認識率により評価されるべきである.そこで本論文では,PSNRを基準とした画質評価と,その画像を認識した際の認識率との関係を示す.Although coded aperture is known as an efficient technique to remove the optical blur from the defocused image, studies on designing the shape of the aperture have not been well explored yet. Therefore in this paper, we will show a practical method with detailed implementation of the optimization of the coded apertures. Especially, crossover process which strongly affects to the performance of genetic algorithm is intensively evaluated and compared with the other methods. In the context of object recognition, the performance of the deblurring should be evaluated by not the visual quality but the resultant recognition rates. Therefore we will show the relationships between PSNR-based image quality criterion and actual recognition rates through experiment.
ステレオ法はシーンに対して光を投影することなくシーンの奥行マップを得ることができる手法であるが,被写体上のテクスチャやエッジが繰返し模様であったりエピポーラ線と並行である場合に画像間の対応付けが不安定になるという問題がある.一方,錯乱円径が距離によって変化することを利用し距離を得るDepth from Defocusは,レンズの口径によって奥行精度が限定されるという欠点をもつ.そこで本研究では,ステレオカメラの左右のカメラに異なる合焦距離を与え,更に符号化開口を導入することでステレオ法とDepth from Defocusを融合し,両手法の利点を兼ね備えた安定度と精度をもつ奥行推定方法を提案する.
In this paper, we propose a method to accurately measure the shape of objects by suppressing indirect reflection such as interreflection or subsurface scattering. We use a modulation with M-sequence shifted along the line of the slit light to be accurately detected on the captured image in two ways. This method has two advantages; one is the characteristics of propagation of higher spatial frequency components and the other is geometric constraint between the projector and the camera. Prior to the measurement, epipolar constraint is obtained through calibration, and then the phase consistency is evaluated to suppress the interreflection. The value of cross-correlation is used to suppress the dilation of the light caused by the subsurface scattering.
We developed a direction system of real-world operation from distant site. The system consists of several sets of cameras, projectors and PCs connected via network each other. At first, the 3-D shape of the object is measured using pattern light projection method, and it is sent to the distant PC. A supervisor can observe the CG of the object from any viewpoint and draw annotation figures on the CG. The direction message is sent to the real field and projected onto the object using projectors. The projected annotations are well aligned geometrically because the all cameras and projectors are calibrated with single reference object. The worker is free from any wearing equipment, ex. HMD, and multi projectors avoid the problem of occlusion by the worker body. Direction of alignment task of both existing and new object are also implemented.
