Self-Supervised Dual-Frequency Phase Decomposition for Single-Shot Composite Fringe Projection Profilometry
About
Single-shot fringe projection profilometry (FPP) has been actively studied for real-time measurement, dynamic object reconstruction, and motion-sensitive environments. Composite fringe patterns are advantageous in single-shot FPP because multiple frequency components can be encoded in a single pattern, enabling phase ambiguity resolution. Existing approaches mainly rely on Fourier transform-based methods or supervised deep learning methods. However, Fourier transform-based methods often suffer from limited accuracy and degraded performance in complex regions, while supervised methods require dense phase or depth labels, which are costly to obtain. In this work, we propose a self-supervised phase refinement framework for single-shot composite fringe patterns without requiring phase or depth labels. The proposed method exploits the scale and direction relationships between low- and high-frequency phase gradients, improving the reliability of phase separation. We also introduce a soft edge consistency loss to preserve object boundaries and fine geometric structures. Experimental results show that the proposed method achieves MAE_z and RMSE_z of 0.367 mm and 1.804 mm, respectively, outperforming the best-performing transform-based baseline, which obtains 0.402 mm and 2.785 mm. The proposed method also improves the valid-pixel ratio from 84.75 % to 95.07 %. These results demonstrate the effectiveness of self-supervised dual-frequency phase refinement for reliable single-shot 3D reconstruction without ground-truth label supervision.
