用频谱约束提升光场深度估计精度与效率

Dense light field depth estimation remains challenging due to sparse angular sampling, occlusion boundaries, textureless regions, and the cost of exhaustive multi-view matching. We propose \emph{Deep Spectral Epipolar Representation} (DSER), a geometry-aware framework that introduces spectral regularization in the epipolar domain for dense disparity reconstruction. DSER models frequency-consistent EPI structure to constrain correspondence estimation and couples this prior with a hybrid inference pipeline that combines least squares gradient initialization, plane-sweeping cost aggregation, and multiscale EPI refinement. An occlusion-aware directed random walk further propagates reliable disparity along edge-consistent paths, improving boundary sharpness and weak-texture stability. Experiments on benchmark and real-world light field datasets show that DSER achieves a strong accuracy-efficiency trade-off, producing more structurally consistent depth maps than representative classical and hybrid baselines. These results establish spectral epipolar regularization as an effective inductive bias for scalable and noise-robust light field depth estimation.
