Abstract

An approach to automatic determination of operation parameters of a hierarchical 3D recursive search (3DRS) algorithm is proposed and tested. A comparative study of the computational speed and noise immunity of the 3DRS algorithm used for constructing displacement vector fields, including the use of the Gaussian pyramids (hierarchical search), is performed. It is shown that application of the hierarchical 3DRS algorithm with operation parameters determined in this work can substantially increase its noise immunity and reduce the computational cost.
