Abstract

The traditional disparity refinement methods cannot get highly accurate disparity estimations, especially pixels around depth boundaries and within low textured regions. To tackle this problem, two novel stereo refinement strategies are proposed: (1) merging super-pixels into stable region to maintain continuity and accuracy of the same disparity; (2) optimizing the co-operative relations between adjacent regions. Then we can obtain high-quality and high-density disparity maps. The quantitative evaluation on Middlebury benchmark shows that our algorithm can significantly refine the results obtained by local and non-local methods.
