Abstract :
Small vibrations of eyeball, which occur when we fix our gaze on object, is called "fixational eye movements.\´\´ It has been reported that such the involuntary eye movements work also for monocular depth perception. In this study, we focus on "tremor\´\´ which is the smallest type of fixational eye movement, and construct depth perception model based on tremor using MAP-EM algorithm. Its effectiveness is confirmed through numerical evaluations using artificial images.
