Popis: Precise calibration is a must for high reliance 3D computer vision algorithms. A challenging case is when the camera is behind a protective glass or transparent object: due to refraction, the image is heavily distorted; the pinhole camera model alone can not be used and a distortion correction step is required. By directly modeling the geometry of the refractive media, we build the image generation process by tracing individual light rays from the camera to a target. Comparing the generated images to their distorted - observed - counterparts, we estimate the geometry parameters of the refractive surface via model inversion by employing an RBF neural network. We present an image collection methodology that produces data suited for finding the distortion parameters and test our algorithm on synthetic and real-world data. We analyze the results of the algorithm.
