Abstract

This paper introduces a fusion algorithm to integrate low-resolution depth maps and stereo matching algorithms. Our fusion algorithm is a divide-and-conquer approach that produces a number of disparity maps over many small sections, named stripes, of the stereo images. The algorithm then uses statistical methods to evaluate each of these sections in order to produce an accurate high-resolution disparity map for a given scene.
