Detailed instructions
Each folder (Stereo_SD_<ds>_<nb>) contains the following files
-
Stereo_SD_<ds>_<nb>_IMG_left: left camera image
-
Stereo_SD_<ds>_<nb>_IMG_right: right camera image
-
Stereo_SD_<ds>_<nb>_IMG_REC_left: left camera image rectified
-
Stereo_SD_<ds>_<nb>_IMG_REC_right: right camera image rectified
-
Stereo-SD_<ds>_<nb>_MASK_left: Mask for left image to be used for correspondence search. It excludes all markers and other artificial objects that could serve as features. (1: pixel to be excluded)
-
Stereo_SD_<ds>_ <nb>_MASK_right: Mask for right image to be used for correspondence search. It excludes all markers and other artificial objects that could serve as features. (1: pixel to be excluded)
-
Stereo_SD_<ds>_<nb>_MASK_REC_left: Mask for rectified left image to be used for correspondence search. It excludes all markers and other artificial objects that could serve as features. (1: pixel to be excluded)
-
Stereo_SD_<ds>_<nb>_MASK_REC_right: Mask for rectified right image to be used for correspondence search. It excludes all markers and other artificial objects that could serve as features. (1: pixel to be excluded)
-
Stereo_SD_<ds>_<nb>_CT_cut: Reference surface extracted from CT data
-
Stereo_SD_<ds>_<nb>_CT_cut_coverage.mps : Point set required to compute the surface coverage as defined in [1]
-
Stereo_SD_<ds>_ <nb>_MASK_eval: Mask for left image to be used for validation only. It includes only those pixels (1: pixel to be included) that have a corresponding point on the reference surface. Details can be found in [1].
-
Stereo_SD_<ds>_<nb>_MASK_REC_eval: Mask for rectified left image to be used for validation only. It includes only those pixels (1: pixel to be included) that have a corresponding point on the reference surface. Details can be found in [1].
-
Stereo_SD_<ds>-<nb>_Calibration.txt: contains the calibration parameters for every dataset in a format described here.
To use the validation data, we suggest using our validation tool. Alternatively, we propose applying the following procedure:
-
Generate a disparity map/establish image correspondences using the original or rectified images. The masks (MASK_left/right or MASK_REC_left/right) should be applied to exclude the markers.
-
Perform triangulation using the calibration data provided. In this step, only the region represented by the evaluation masks (MASK_eval or MASK_REC_eval) should be considered.
-
Compare triangulated surface with reference surface (CT-cut) provided.
