Stereo matching of the disparity discontinuous boundaries and weak texture regions is still a problem of computer vision. Local-based stereo matching algorithm with the advantages of fast speed and high accuracy is the most common method. In order to improve the matching accuracy of the mentioned regions,a stereo matching algorithm based on edge feature of segmented image is proposed. Firstly, the reference image was segmented by Mean-Shift algorithm. Then, support window was dynamically allocated based on edge feature of segmented image. Finally, the disparity distribution of support window was adjusted by introducing weighting factor. The experimental results show that this algorithm can reduce noise and effectively improve the matching accuracy.

A gradation stereo matching algorithm based on edge feature points was proposed. Its basic idea is: firstly edge feature points of image pair were extracted; then, gradient invariability and singular eigenvalue invariability were analyzed, two-grade stereo matching method was build, foundation matrix was solved further, and three-grade stereo matching algorithm was finished by foundation matrix guidance. The result indicates that the algorithm can improve matching precision, from 58.3% to 73.2%, it is simple and utility, and it is important for object recognition, tracking, and three-dimensional reconstruction.

Binocular stereo matching is a hot and difficult problem in machine vision. In this paper, based on the matching method of Halcon which is visual software perform image matching. First, performing binocular stereo vision system calibration, based on the calibration results acquired the epipolar standard geometric structure. Then, image matching researched under this structure. At last, using ncc matching algorithm, through comparing the different parameters matching window obtain ideal match results. Experiments prove that this method not only can effectively shorten matching time, but also can achieve higher matching accuracy.

In the field of robot vision, edge feature based stereo matching algorithm can reconstruct the targets with clear contours, which needs accurate and continuous target edges been extracted. In the paper, the smoothing filter operator was designed based on the discrete criteria of edge extraction and its correspondence optimal linear filter. Edge extraction was carried out incorporated the nonmaximum suppression and two thresholds techniques. The discrete criteria based multi-scale edge extraction method was studied with full use of the multi-scale character of the edge information. The detected multi-scale edges were synthesized to obtain the accurate and continuous single pixel wide edge. Then an edge feature based stereo matching algorithm was proposed to obtain 3D information of target. The experimental results demonstrate that the method can effectively suppress disturbance in outdoor environment and reconstruct target contour clearly.

In traditional adaptive-weight stereo matching, the rectangular shaped support region requires excess memory consumption and time. We propose a novel line-based stereo matching algorithm for obtaining a more accurate disparity map with low computation complexity. This algorithm can be divided into two steps: disparity map initialization and disparity map refinement. In the initialization step, a new adaptive-weight model based on the linear support region is put forward for cost aggregation. In this model, the neural network is used to evaluate the spatial proximity, and the mean-shift segmentation method is used to improve the accuracy of color similarity; the Birchfield pixel dissimilarity function and the census transform are adopted to establish the dissimilarity measurement function. Then the initial disparity map is obtained by loopy belief propagation. In the refinement step, the disparity map is optimized by iterative left-right consistency checking method and segmentation voting method. The parameter values involved in this algorithm are determined with many simulation experiments to further improve the matching effect. Simulation results indicate that this new matching method performs well on standard stereo benchmarks and running time of our algorithm is remarkably lower than that of algorithm with rectangle-shaped support region.

The stereo matching algorithm based on aligning genomic sequence is proposed in the paper. This method is divided in three steps: do genomic sequence on the same name epipolar of stereo matching, get branch matrix by establishing genomic sequences using the same name epipolar after being genomic sequences, control points technology and dynamic backdate method to get disparity. The experimental results show that stereo matching method based on genomic sequences has fast speed and good matching quality.

Aiming at the problem that stereo matching accuracy is easily affected by noise and amplitude distortion, a stereo matching algorithm based on HSV color space and improved census transform is proposed. In the cost calculation stage, the color image is first converted from RGB space to HSV space; moreover, the hue channel is used as the matching primitive to establish the hue absolute difference (HAD) cost calculation function, which reduces the amount of calculation and enhances the robustness of matching. Then, to solve the problem of the traditional census transform overrelying on the central pixel and to improve the noise resistance of the algorithm, an improved census method based on neighborhood weighting is also proposed. Finally, the HAD cost and the improved census cost are nonlinearly fused as the initial cost. In the aggregation stage, an outlier elimination method based on confidence interval is proposed. By calculating the confidence interval of the aggregation window, this paper eliminates the cost value that is not in the confidence interval and subsequently filters as well as aggregates the remaining costs to further reduce the noise interference and improve the matching accuracy. Experiments show that the proposed method can not only effectively suppress the influence of noise, but also achieve a more robust matching effect in scenes with changing exposure and lighting conditions.
