Hi All, I am currently working on depth image processing in openv with c++.. Is it possible to apply the superpixel algorithm on depth data? Thank you.

should be technically possible,but be careful there: while e.g. SLIC supports 8u 8s 16u 16s 32s 32f , SEEDS only has 8u 16u 32f (you might have to adapt your data)

how do you get your depth image ? (any noise will be harmful here)

Hi Berak, Thank you for your response. I am getting the depth image from stereo camera. Do you any references for it, as I am unable to find for depth data.

not really, been digging through the code, but forgot to take liinks, unfortunately ;(

Well, Superpixels extractor algorithms are usually applied to Color image. For example SLIC algorithm uses CIElab color space to which pixel should be assigned together. Thus, If you want to apply directly SLIC to depth image which has only depth information, the simple answer is NO, otherwise you have to modify the SLIC Kernel. However, in 3D Superpixels are called Supervoxels thus you have to look for Supervoxel methods (Check PCL library fro VCCS).

If you need more information do not hesitate to ask.

arrfou .. I am very thankful about your answer. I am using c++ language with opencv library. I am working on human skeleton extraction from depth data only. Do you know some research papers or methods for it?

Hello, I am not quit familiar with human skeleton extraction methods. I am more on 3D segmentation and stereo-vision area.

Thank You. I am capturing the input from stereo camera only. Is it possible you to suggest 3D segmentation method for depth data?
