作者:

Highlights:

• The feasibility of combining multifocus image fusion and shape-from-focus methods to obtain real 3D reconstruction results is introduced.

• The advantages of 3D shape reconstruction using nonsubsampled shearlet transform and a multidirectional modified Laplacian are discussed.

• The major challenges faced by conventional shape-from-focus algorithms in reconstruction of low-contrast regions are analyzed.

• The difficulties of existing image fusion methods in mining depth information are summarized.

• Future applications of the proposed 3D shape reconstructions in the field of intaglio printing are presented.
