We introduce color information from images to the stereo matching algorithm by aggregating the similarities of the RGB channels which are calculated independently. We compare the accuracy of different stereo matching algorithms and aggregation functions. We show experimentally that the best function depends on the stereo matching algorithm considered, but the dual of the geometric mean excels as the most robust aggregation.application/pdfeng© 2012 Optical Society of America.
