Abstract :
An efficient technique based on the Bayes test is introduced in this paper for the identification of the occlusion and visible background and foreground areas in a noisy stereoscopic image pair. Four hypotheses are used for the formulation of a compound Bayes decision rules. Experimental results illustrating the performance of the proposed techniques are presented and evaluated.
