Abstract
The problem of accurate three-dimensional reconstruction is important for many research and industrial applications. Light field depth estimation utilizes many observations of the scene and hence can provide accurate reconstruction. We present a method, which enhances existing reconstruction algorithm with per-layer disparity filtering and consistency-based holes filling. Together with that we reformulate the reconstruction result to a form of point cloud from different light field viewpoints and propose a non-linear optimization of it. The capability of our method to reconstruct scenes with acceptable quality was verified by evaluation on a publicly available dataset.
