Stereo Processing in the Human Visual System

These two videos describe some key aspects of human stereo vision and introduce a computational model that tries to incorporate these observations. The first video addresses the features used for stereo matching and the important role that multiple scales of processing and vergence eye movements play in human stereo vision. It also briefly touches on the neural mechanisms underlying stereo vision in monkeys. The second video describes a stereo correspondence algorithm proposed by Marr, Poggio, and Grimson that is based on matching zero-crossings of images processed with Laplacian-of-Gaussian operators of different size.
