Toward a real-time belief propagation stereo reconstruction for computers, robots, and beyond

This paper introduces a fast and reliable Belief Propagation based stereo matching algorithm to be equipped with mobile real-time stereo vision applications; such as autonomous navigation of robots, vehicles, UAVs and drones, mobility aid for visually impaired, and more‥ The algorithm approximates the minimum energy solution on graphical Markov Chains based on intensities of consecutive stereo image scanlines. It can achieve real-time...
