Edge Bleeding Artifact Reduction for Shape from Focus in Microscopic 3D Sensing
Shape from focus enables microscopic 3D sensing by combining it with a microscope system. However, edge bleeding artifacts of estimated depth easily occur in this environment. Therefore, this study analyzed artifacts and proposed a method to reduce edge bleeding artifacts. As a result of the analysi...

description | Shape from focus enables microscopic 3D sensing by combining it with a microscope system. However, edge bleeding artifacts of estimated depth easily occur in this environment. Therefore, this study analyzed artifacts and proposed a method to reduce edge bleeding artifacts. As a result of the analysis, the artifact factors are the depth of field of the lens, object texture, brightness difference between layers, and the slope of the object. Additionally, to reduce artifacts, a weighted focus measure value method was proposed based on the asymmetry of local brightness in artifacts. The proposed reduction method was evaluated through simulation and implementation. Edge bleeding artifact reduction rates of up to 60% were shown in various focus measure operators. The proposed method can be used with postprocessing algorithms and reduces edge bleeding artifacts. |
