Abstract

A method includes receiving, from a multiscopic image capture system, a plurality of images depicting a scene. The method includes determining, by application of a neural network based on the plurality of images, a disparity map of the scene. The neural network includes a plurality of layers, and the layers include a rectification layer. The method include determining a matching error of the disparity map based on differences between corresponding pixels of two or more images associated with the disparity map. The method includes back-propagating the matching error to the rectification layer of the neural network. Back-propagating the matching error includes updating one or more weights applied to the rectification layer.
