Abstract

This paper presents a new algorithm for the joint restoration of depth and intensity (DI) images constructed using a gated SPAD-array imaging system. The three dimensional (3D) data consists of two spatial dimensions and one temporal dimension, and contains photon counts (i.e., histograms). The algorithm is based on two steps: (i) construction of a graph connecting patches of pixels with similar temporal responses, and (ii) estimation of the DI values for pixels belonging to homogeneous spatial classes. The first step is achieved by building a graph representation of the 3D data, while giving a special attention to the computational complexity of the algorithm.
The second step is achieved using a Fisher scoring gradient descent algorithm while accounting for the data statistics and the Laplacian regularization term. Results on laboratory data show the benefit of the proposed strategy that improves the quality of the estimated DI images.
