Description

Hole filling method of Gaussian mixture model based on depth information assistance
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of three-dimensional video hole filling, in particular to a hole filling method of a Gaussian mixture model based on depth information assistance.
Background
Virtual viewpoint synthesis has become a core part of three-dimensional video (3-D) research because it can avoid transmitting a large number of viewpoint images in Free Viewpoint Video (FVV). The most common viewpoint synthesis technique is Depth Image Based Rendering (DIBR) using texture images and their related Depth maps, and although DIBR techniques have been developed more and more fully, the problem of hole filling in virtual views is still a relatively difficult problem.
Generally speaking, there are two main cases of generating a hole, namely a discontinuous area in the virtual view caused by an inaccurate depth value, and a background object occluded in the reference view may become visible in the virtual view, thereby causing a large piece of hole in the virtual view. Image restoration is a commonly used technique for filling up holes, and the pixel values of a hole area are determined mainly according to the spatial texture correlation between adjacent pixels. However, there is usually no spatial texture correlation between the occluded region and the foreground region, and when there is a large number of holes generated by occlusion in the virtual view, the difference between the result of using the normal image for repairing and the actual real view image is often large.
To get better hole filling results, the most popular technique at present is GMM (Gaussian Mixture Model) algorithm. The GMM may generate a stable scene background from the temporal correlation information, where each pixel is modeled and represented by multiple gaussian models that are iteratively updated at a learning rate when new sample data appears. Because occluded regions that cannot be restored in a virtual view are typically background, filling occluded regions with a GMM-generated background is a very efficient method. However, for foreground regions that are periodically rotated or reciprocated, the GMM will often mistakenly treat them as background and fill in the hole regions, since the foreground repeats at the same position over multiple time frames. The composite image obtained in this way will have a larger difference from the image taken by the real camera at this position, and further affect the viewing effect of the 3D video.

Detailed Description
The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
According to the invention, based on the principle that an occlusion area which is invisible in a reference view and visible in a virtual view is usually a background area, a sliding window method is added on the basis of FDC, and GMM texture background and FDC texture background are combined according to the number of Gaussian models, so that a reliable background result is obtained, and the purpose of effectively filling holes is achieved.
In the method of filling holes with the resulting background, accurate discrimination of foreground and background is crucial. Although the original FDC method can produce good subjective and objective results in the reciprocating motion sequence, it still has the problem of misclassifying the foreground as the background, as shown in fig. 1, the oval frame area is the area where the foreground is misclassified as the background, and once the foreground area is misclassified as the background, the area will always exist in the background result. This makes the partitioning result of the first frame crucial in gradually acquiring the FDC background in time domain.
In order to avoid the situation, the invention adopts a sliding window mode, divides the texture frame and the depth frame in the sequence into a plurality of intervals according to time sequence, and executes the FDC method for each interval, so that each interval obtains an FDC interval texture background result. The final FDC texture background is determined by combining the multiple FDC interval texture background results according to the depth information, so that the situation that the foreground is mistakenly divided into the background and cannot be recovered under the condition of a single interval (namely, the interval is not divided) can be avoided.
First, in order to avoid misclassification of foreground pixels into background pixels, the learning rate in the GMM is adjusted by using depth information, so that the proportion of the foreground pixels in the model is reduced and the proportion of the background pixels in the model is increased. Furthermore, an improved Foreground Depth Correlation (FDC) algorithm is proposed, which generates background frames by tracking the variation of foreground depth in the time domain. Compared with the existing algorithm, the algorithm uses a sliding window to obtain a plurality of background reference frames, and the reference frames are fused together by using depth information to generate a more accurate background frame. Finally, texture background pixels in the GMM and FDC are adaptively selected to fill the hole. By adopting the method of the invention, better cavity filling effect can be observed by naked eyes, and obvious objective gain can be obtained in the reciprocating motion sequence. The method specifically comprises the following steps:
(1) acquiring image sequence data comprising a plurality of views, wherein the image sequence data of each view comprises a texture frame and a depth frame of a plurality of frames; each view is different, and the number of texture frames and depth frames is the same, the holes of the present invention can be obtained by the following method: the texture frames and the depth frames in the first view correspondingly acquire the virtual texture frames with the same frame number in the second view through a virtual viewpoint synthesis algorithm, and due to the shielding effect of the foreground, the virtual texture frames have large holes at the boundary of the foreground background, so that the viewing effect is influenced.
(2) Determining a GMM texture background in the image sequence data by adopting a Gaussian mixture model algorithm;
an acquisition method of a reference texture background is provided. Firstly, all texture frames and depth frames in a sequence are used in a GMM process, the texture frames are used for constructing a Gaussian model, and the depth frames are used for determining model updating parameters. Each pixel in the image is represented by M gaussian models (typically 3-5 models), and is continually updated according to the pixel value changes of subsequent frames.
For a single pixel, the kth Gaussian model of the tth frame is denoted as ηk,tModel mean is recorded as μk,tAnd the standard deviation is recorded as σk,tAnd the weight is recorded as ωk,tWherein, in the step (A),the first frame texture frame in the sequence is used for constructing an initialized Gaussian model of each pixel;
calculating the difference | X between the pixel value of the current pixel of the next frame and the mean value of each Gaussian modeltk,t-1L. If | Xtk,t-1|<2.5σk,tIf so, judging that the pixel value of the current pixel of the next frame belongs to the Gaussian model, and updating the model according to a model updating parameter, wherein the model updating parameter is determined according to the following formula:
where α is the learning rate and is a constant, ε is the empirical value in the sequence and is the depth pixel value observed from the depth frame that can distinguish the foreground and background regions, dt(x, y) is the pixel value at the (x, y) position on the t-th frame depth map, αt(x, y) the updated learning rate is usually different for each pixel of each frame.
For each pixel, the process of model update is as follows:
μk,t←(1-αtk,t-1+αXt
ωk,t←(1-αtk,t-1
if the pixel value of the current pixel of the next frame does not belong to any Gaussian model, the weight-to-variance ratio omega is deletedk,tk,tA minimum of one model and constructing a new model. Such an approach may generate a better background, resulting in a higher filling efficiency.
After the GMM process is completed, some pixels contain a model with the weight of 1, and other M-1 models have the weight of 0, that is, only one model. This means that in all texture frames of the sequence, the pixel values of the same location have not changed, for which pixels it is determined to be background, and will be applied to the GMM texture background ψgIn (1).
And (3) newly building a membrane map, recording the position of only one Gaussian model by adopting a pixel value of 0, determining the position as a background position, and recording the position of a plurality of Gaussian model pixels by adopting a pixel value of 255, thereby determining the GMM texture background.
(3) Dividing the texture frame and the depth frame into a plurality of intervals according to time sequence, and carrying out histogram equalization processing on the depth frame in each interval;
and dividing all texture frames and depth frames in the sequence into K intervals according to time sequence, and processing each depth map in the intervals by using a K-Means method to obtain a binary depth map. Wherein k is 2. The pixel value 0 represents the background and the value 255 represents the foreground.
(4) Calculating a foreground depth correlation algorithm for the texture frame in each interval to correspondingly obtain an FDC interval texture background; calculating a foreground depth correlation algorithm for the depth frame after binarization in each interval to correspondingly obtain an FDC interval depth background;
referring to fig. 4, performing foreground depth correlation algorithm calculation on the texture frame in each interval to obtain the FDC interval texture background correspondingly includes:
(41) generating an initial FDC texture background by using a first frame in a manner of filling a blank image by adopting a region which is distinguished as the background by a binary depth map in the first frame, namely obtaining a background texture region in a first frame texture map corresponding to the background region of the first frame;
(42) updating an unfilled region in the FDC texture background by using a second frame texture map corresponding to a region in which the second frame in the binary depth map of the second frame becomes the background;
(43) and executing the same process as the second frame on all the texture frames in the subsequent interval so as to obtain the FDC interval texture background of the interval.
Once an area in all previous frames classified as foreground is found, in a frame classified as background, this area in the texture frame will be used to recover the FDC interval texture background.
The technical details of obtaining the FDC interval depth background and the FDC interval texture background are the same, but the method has different functions, wherein the former object is a texture frame, and the latter object is a depth frame after binarization.
(5) Combining the FDC interval texture background obtained from each interval according to the depth information contained in the FDC interval depth background to finally obtain the FDC texture background;
referring to fig. 3, K obtained interval background depth maps are compared, and for K depth pixel points corresponding to each position, the pixel point with the minimum depth value is selectedFilling the background with texture pixel points at corresponding positions in a texture background image corresponding to the depth image; that is, for a single pixel point (x, y), we use the texture background corresponding to the interval depth background with the minimum depth value as the final texture background, which is expressed as psi if there isdk(x,y)=min(ψdi(x, y)), thentf(x,y)=ψtk(x, y) whereintf(x, y) is the final FDC texture background at point (x, y), ψdi(x, y) is the FDC interval depth background, ψ, corresponding to the ith interval at point (x, y)tkAnd (x, y) is the FDC interval texture background corresponding to the kth interval of the point (x, y). k is the resulting psi with the smallest depth valuediThe number i, i ∈ [1, K ] of (x, y)]Where t and d in the subscript are used to distinguish between texture and depth map frames.
The invention determines the final FDC method background by combining the background results of a plurality of FDC intervals according to the depth information, thereby avoiding the situation that the foreground is wrongly divided into the background and can not be retrieved under the condition of a single interval (namely, the interval is not divided).
(6) And adaptively filling all image frame numbers by adopting the GMM texture background and the FDC texture background to finish a reference texture background image, and further filling the cavity area of the virtual texture frame in the virtual view with the corresponding area background.
Filling pixel points containing a Gaussian model with pixel points at positions corresponding to GMM texture backgrounds; otherwise, filling the pixel points at the corresponding positions of the FDC texture background, namely: finally, the GMM texture background and the FDC texture background are combined, and the combined background is marked as psiB. For pixels in GMM with only one model, ψB(x,y)=ψg(x, y), otherwise ψB(x,y)=ψtf(x,y)。
To verify the effectiveness of the present invention, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to a specific embodiment. For ease of explanation, and without loss of generality, the following assumptions are made:
the method proposed by the invention is intended to use the Ballet test sequence in the Microsoft data set for testing, the resolution is 1024 x 768, texture and depth data of 8 different views are contained, and the texture and depth data are all 100 frames. Accompanied by the inner and outer matrix parameters for each camera (camera 0 to camera 7 arranged from right to left), and the largest and smallest true depth value in the sequence.
In this embodiment, the camera 0 view is used to restore the camera 1 view through a virtual viewpoint synthesis algorithm and a hole filling technique. First, 100 frames of virtual texture frames of the camera 1 view are respectively acquired through a virtual viewpoint synthesis algorithm using 100 frames of texture frames and depth frames in the camera 0 view. Due to the occlusion effect of the foreground, these virtual texture frames all have large pieces of holes at the boundary of the foreground background, as shown by the gray areas behind the human in fig. 5a and b, and fig. 5c and d are the hole filling respectively performed by the method of the present invention. In order to make the virtual view have better viewing effect, the invention adopts a mode of self-adaptively selecting the GMM texture background and the FDC texture background for filling the holes.
To obtain a better GMM texture background, depth information is added to adjust the learning rate in the GMM parameter update process. The depth map data in the Ballet test sequence in the Microsoft data set is observed to obtain the empirical depth value epsilon for distinguishing the foreground and the background, which is 60, and the depth data of each frame is combined and then is processed by a formulaTo adjust the learning rate. And (4) using the data of each frame for adjusting Gaussian model parameters, and obtaining the GMM texture background by using the final model parameters.
For the final combination with the FDC texture background, when the final model parameters are obtained, a film map is created, and the positions of the pixels containing only one gaussian model and a plurality of gaussian models are recorded by pixel values 0 and 255.
In order to obtain the FDC texture background, histogram equalization processing is carried out on the depth frame in advance, and FDC operation is carried out on 100 frames of texture frames and the processed depth frame in different regions. Since 100 frames of data exist in a single view in the Ballet sequence, and when the sequence is used for carrying out the FDC operation, the background obtained by measuring about 30 frames does not change any more, the 100 frames of data are divided into 3 intervals for carrying out the FDC operation. And organically combining the obtained 3 interval texture background images through corresponding depth background images to obtain a final FDC texture background.
FDC operation of a single interval as shown in FIG. 4, a binary depth map is obtained by a K-Means method for each frame of depth map in the interval. Firstly initializing a background image to be filled, determining a background area of a first frame of texture image through a first frame of binary depth image, filling the texture area into the background, then determining a background area of a second frame of texture image through a second frame of binary depth image, filling the texture area into the background area which is not filled yet, and repeating the steps for each next frame to gradually complete the background.
And according to the film image obtained by the GMM process, filling the GMM texture background pixel value into the position of the film image pixel value of 0 for the final background image, otherwise, filling the FDC texture background pixel. And after the final background image is obtained, synthesizing the background of the virtual viewpoint by using a virtual viewpoint synthesis algorithm, and filling the hole areas of the 100 frames of virtual texture frames with the backgrounds of the corresponding areas respectively.
