Abstract

This paper introduces connectivity preserving constraints into spatio-temporal multi-view reconstruction. We efficiently model connectivity constraints by precomputing a geodesic shortest path tree on the occupancy likelihood. Connectivity of the final occupancy labeling is ensured with a set of linear constraints on the labeling function. In order to generalize the connectivity constraints from objects with genus 0 to an arbitrary genus, we detect loops by analyzing the visual hull of the scene. A modification of the constraints ensures connectivity in the presence of loops. The proposed efficient implementation adds little runtime and memory overhead to the reconstruction method. Several experiments show significant improvement over state-of-the-art methods and validate the practical use of this approach in scenes with fine structured details. © 2014 Springer International Publishing.
