Abstract
A multilayer, depth planes approach to image segmentation is
proposed, where pixels may have arisen from a single smooth surface in
the scene are represented in a common layer. Two types of output are
produced at each pixel, i.e., a layer number and a vector of depth
values, one value for each layer. The layer assignment performs image
partitioning based on surface properties. The depth value assignment for
each layer either represents the input data with the noise removed or
interpolates between data values to fill-in nonvisible parts of the
scene. The disjoint surfaces due to occlusion or transparency are also
grouped together if they form a smooth surface
