The Depth Information Estimation of Microscope Defocus Image Based-on Markov Random Field

For depth information estimation of microscope defocus image, a blur parameter model of defocus image based on Markov random field has been present. It converts problem of depth estimation into optimization problem. An improved iterated conditional modes algorithm has been applied to complete optimization problem, which the select of initial point employed least squares estimate algorithm prevents that the result gets into local optimization. The experiments and simulations prove that the model and algorithm is efficiency.
