Computer Vision - ACCV 2014 Workshops

We present a reconstruction algorithm that can restore the captured 4D light field from a portable plenoptic camera without the need for calibration images. An efficient and robust estimator is proposed to accurately detect the centers of microlens images. Based on that estimator, parameters that model the centers of microlens array images are obtained by solving a global optimization problem. To further enhance the quality of reconstructed multi-view images, a novel 4D demosaicing algorithm based on kernel regression is also proposed. Our experimental results show that it outperforms state of the art algorithms.
