Guided image filtering in shape-from-focus: A comparative analysis

作者:

Highlights:

• Guided image filtering has been suggested for improving the initial depth maps in shape from focus (SFF).

• The performance of a set of recently proposed guided filters in improving depth maps is evaluated and analyzed.

• Guidance maps based on, mean image intensity and correlation among image intensities and focus measurements, are the best among the set of proposed guidance maps.

• Guided image filters with characteristics of noise reduction and edge preserving at the same time provide accurate depth.
