Abstract
This paper presents an optimal method for the separation of reflected and transparent layers from realworld scene images Whereas past research has been applied to indoor environments and static cameras our technique can be used for outdoor scenes and motion cameras The method is based on spatiotemporal analysis especially using epipolar plane images EPI The edge and color information of EPI has been used to segment the areas on EPIs efficiently and separate the reflected and transparent layers This method can be used for refining building textures by removing reflections from captured images for the purpose of city modeling
