Spatial and Angular Reconstruction of Light Field Based on Deep Generative Networks

Light field (LF) cameras often have significant limitations in spatial and angular resolutions due to their design. Many techniques that attempt to reconstruct LF images at a higher resolution only consider either spatial or angular resolution, but not both. We propose a generative network using high-dimensional convolution to improve both aspects. Our experimental results on both synthetic and real-world data demonstrate that the proposed model outperforms existing state-of-the-art methods in terms of both peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) and visual quality. The proposed method can also generate more realistic spatial details with better fidelity.
