Vector median splatting for image based rendering

Abstract

In the paper a method of missing data completion based on the vector median filtering is presented, which may be useful as an adaptive splatting algorithm for Image Based Rendering. Presented approach has been verified using some scanned face models rendered using the IBR method with the use of standard splatting and proposed method. Obtained results are promising and may be a starting point for further research related to the adaptive change of the splat weighting function, especially as a support for the real-time face recognition applications. © 2010 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.
