Surface reconstruction using patch-based multi-view stereo commonly assumes that the underlying surface is locally planar. This is typically not true so that least-squares fitting of a planar patch leads to systematic errors which are of particular importance for multi-scale surface reconstruction. In a recent paper [12], we determined the modulation transfer function of a classical patch-based stereo system. Our key insight was that the reconstructed surface is a box-filtered version of the original surface. Since the box filter is not a true low-pass filter this causes high-frequency artifacts. In this paper, we propose an extended reconstruction model by weighting the least-squares fit of the 3D patch. We show that if the weighting function meets specified criteria the reconstructed surface is the convolution of the original surface with that weighting function. A choice of particular interest is the Gaussian which is commonly used in image and signal processing but left unexploited by many multi-view stereo algorithms. Finally, we demonstrate the effects of our theoretic findings using experiments on synthetic and real-world data sets.
