Abstract

In the design of the traditional CNN model, there is always a balance between the spatial dimension and the number of channels. The high-dimensional spatial resolution is to preserve more detailed local information, while the large number of channels ensures more complex feature representation. For the current Light-field depth estimation algorithm, the designers usually choose to maintain a high spatial dimension in the network to improve the accuracy of the depth estimation, which results in a situation where the model has a large size and will take up huge amount of computing resources in the depth estimation process. In this paper, we introduce an effective pooling method: spectral pooling, to improve the problems of the original Light-field depth estimation network mentioned above. We transfer the light field feature map to the frequency domain through Fourier transform and reasonably reduce the size of the feature map in the frequency domain to an arbitrary size. The method can be used to reduce the complexity of the network and speed up training with similar performance to the original algorithm. More importantly, the new model with less memory demand can be better applied to light mobile device.
