Week 3REU student -Amari Lewis P.H.D student- Aidean Sharghi June 6th 2014 Scale-invariant Representation of Light Field Images for Object Recognition EPFEDL • Understanding previous work • Studied the buildings on their campus-Switzerland • Studied the methods • Tried to access their code (dataset) Implementation of codes using matlab Task1: study the available light field toolbox for matlab • This toolbox was capable with the lytro light field camera, and the raw 3D images • Camera calibration, image rectification, colour correction and visualization of lfI • See if any of the features would be useful toward the project • Lytro software- prospective shifts Task2: code in matlab extracting the EPI of images (in a simple way) The output epipolar plane image (EPI) for when y=0 Zoomed in, notice the horizontal lines that will be observing for object recognition Task3: code in matlab to be able to go through the folders of the dataset and extract the EPI for each image when x is fixed (x=0), and y is fixed (y=0). EPI when x=0 for bike1 EPI when y=0 bike1 Task4 completing dataset • Using the lytro desktop- save the perspective shifts of the image (stack.lfp) • Lytro viewer/meltdown software- save each different view separately • Each image folder: • has its own data (excel) • X and Y images separate for EPI extraction
