Abstract
. This paper introduces a new multi-view reconstruction problem called approximate N-view stereo. The goal of this problem is to recover a oneparameter family of volumes that are increasingly tighter supersets of an unknown, arbitrarily-shaped 3D scene. By studying 3D shapes that reproduce the input photographs up to a special image transformation called a shuffle transformation,we prove that (1) these shapes can be organized hierarchically into nested supersets of the scene, and (2) they can be computed using a simple algorithm called Approximate Space Carving that is provably-correct for arbitrary discrete scenes (i.e., for unknown, arbitrarily-shaped Lambertian scenes that are defined by a finite set of voxels and are viewed from N arbitrarily-distributed viewpoints inside or around them). The approach is specifically designed to attack practical reconstruction problems, including (1) recovering shape from images with inaccurate calibration information, and (2) building ...
