Rectification Using Different Types of Cameras Attached to a Vehicle.

The rectification process is a compulsory step in stereo matching computation. To obtain depth information, stereo camera systems are often installed in vehicles for outdoor and street-related applications, including vehicle and pedestrian detection, lane detection, and traffic sign recognition. In this paper, we propose a rectification method that uses currently available front- and rear-view vehicle cameras to produce rectified stereo images.

Robust Matching Cost Function for Stereo Correspondence Using Matching by Tone Mapping and Adaptive Orthogonal Integral Image.

Real-world stereo images are inevitably affected by radiometric differences, including variations in exposure, vignetting, lighting, and noise. Stereo images with severe radiometric distortion can have large radiometric differences and include locally nonlinear changes. In this paper, we first introduce an adaptive orthogonal integral image, which is an improved version of an orthogonal integral image.
