In this paper, we propose a nonlinear 3D image correlator using computational reconstruction of 3D images based on integral imaging. In the proposed method, the elemental images for reference 3D object and target 3D object are recorded through the lens array. The recorded elemental images are reconstructed as reference plane image and target plane images using the computational integral imaging reconstruction algorithm and the nonolinear correlation between them is performed for object recognition. To show the usefulness of the proposed method, the preliminary experiments are carried out and the experimental results are presented compared with the conventional results.

In this paper, we present a three-dimensional (3-D) automatic target recognition system based on optical integral imaging reconstruction. In integral imaging, elemental images of the reference and target 3-D objects are obtained through a lenslet array or a camera array. Then, reconstructed 3-D images at various reconstruction depths can be optically generated on the output plane by back-projecting these elemental images onto a display panel. 3-D automatic target recognition can be implemented using computational integral imaging reconstruction and digital nonlinear correlation filters. However, these methods require non-trivial computation time for reconstruction and recognition. Instead, we implement 3-D automatic target recognition using optical cross-correlation between the reconstructed 3-D reference and target images at the same reconstruction depth. Our method depends on an all-optical structure to realize a real-time 3-D automatic target recognition system. In addition, we use a nonlinear correlation filter to improve recognition performance. To prove our proposed method, we carry out the optical experiments and report recognition results.

In this paper, a new plane-based computational reconstruction technique for three-dimensional (3D) objects in 3D internal imaging based on a lens model is proposed. For the proposed technique, computational experiments have been carried out for various test images. Resolution of the reconstructed images is analyzed and compared with that obtained by the conventional technique. From experiments, it is shown that the resolution of a 3-D reconstructed image was improved by using the proposed technique.

Recently, a computational reconstruction method using an integral imaging technique, which is a promise three-dimensional display technique, has been actively researched. This method is that 3-D images can be digitally reconstructed at the required output planes by superposition of all of the inversely enlarged elemental images by using a hypothetical pinhole array model. However, the conventional method mostly yields reconstructed images having a low-resolution, because there are some intensity irregularities with a grid structure at the reconstructed mage plane by using square-type elemental images. In this paper, to overcome this problem, we propose a novel computational integral imaging reconstruction (CIIR) method using round-type mapping model. Proposed CIIR method can overcome problems of non-uniformly reconstructed images caused from the conventional method and improve the resolution of 3-D images. To show the usefulness of the proposed method, both computational experiment and optical experiment are carried out and their results are presented.

Plane-based computational integral imaging (CIIR) provides the reconstruction of depth-dependent 3D plane images. However, it has problem degrading the resolution of reconstructed images due to the artifact noise according to the depth. In this paper, to overcome this problem, a signal model for plane-based CIIR is explain. Also the compensation process is introduced to remove the noise caused from CIIR. Computational experiments show that we analyze the characteristics of noise in the reconstructed image of 2D Gaussian image and the high-resolution images can be obtained by using the compensation process.

In this paper, we propose a computational integral imaging reconstruction (CIIR) method based on scale-cariant magnification technique for resolution-enhanced 3D images. First, we introduce an interference problem among elemental images in CIIR. Magnification by a large factor causes inference among elemental images when they are applied to the superposition process. Thus, the resolution of reconstructed images is limited. To overcome the interference problem, we propose a method to calculate a minimum magnification factor while CIIR is still valid. Magnification by a new factor enables the Proposed method to reconstruct resolution-enhanced images. In addition, the computational load of the proposed method is less than that of the previous method. To confirm the feasibility of the proposed method, some experiments are carried out and the results are presented.

In this paper, we propose a novel method to improve the visual quality of reconstructed images for 3D pattern recognition based on the computational integral imaging reconstruction (CIIR). The proposed CIIR method provides improved 3D reconstructed images by superimposing magnified elemental images by a combination of a round mapping model and image interpolation algorithms. To objectively evaluate the proposed method, we introduce an experimental framework for a computational pickup process and a CIIR process using a Gaussian function and evaluate the proposed method. We also carry out experiments on 3D objects and present their results.

Enhanced reconstruction of heavy occluded objects was represented using estimation of variance in computational integral imaging. The system is analyzed to extract information of enhanced reconstruction from an elemental images set. To obtain elemental images with enhanced resolution, low focus error, and large depth of focus, synthetic aperture integral imaging (SAII) utilizing a digital camera has been adopted. The focused areas of the reconstructed image are varied with the distance of the reconstruction plane. When an occluded object is occluded heavily, an occluded object can not be reconstructed by removing the occluding object. To obtain reconstruction of the occluded object by remedying the effect of heavy occlusion, the statistical technique has been adopted.
