title: Modelling human depth perception in binocular vision: obtaining the horizontal disparity map.
abstract: The paper presents a computer application developed as a tool for implementing, developing, and testing computational models for stereopsis. Two models for solving the correspondence problem and computing the stereo disparity map have been implemented. One of them is biologically inspired (it models the behaviour of simple and complex cells from the striate cortex) and the paper details the results obtained on random-dot stereograms and on pairs of real images.
