Occlusions, Motion and Depth Boundaries with
a Generic Network for Disparity, Optical Flow
or Scene Flow Estimation
Abstract. Occlusions play an important role in disparity and optical
flow estimation, since matching costs are not available in occluded areas
and occlusions indicate depth or motion boundaries. Moreover, occlusions are relevant for motion segmentation and scene flow estimation. In
this paper, we present an efficient learning-based approach to estimate
occlusion areas jointly with disparities or optical flow. The estimated occlusions and motion boundaries clearly improve over the state-of-the-art.
Moreover, we present networks with state-of-the-art performance on the
popular KITTI benchmark and good generic performance. Making use
of the estimated occlusions, we also show improved results on motion
segmentation and scene flow estimation
