Automatic Layer Separation using Light Field Imaging
share
We propose a novel approach that jointly removes reflection or translucent layer from a scene and estimates scene depth. The input data are captured via light field imaging. The problem is couched as minimizing the rank of the transmitted scene layer via Robust Principle Component Analysis (RPCA). We also impose regularization based on piecewise smoothness, gradient sparsity, and layer independence to simultaneously recover 3D geometry of the transmitted layer. Experimental results on synthetic and real data show that our technique is robust and reliable, and can handle a broad range of layer separation problems.
