  This paper presents a method for capturing high-speed video using an
asynchronous camera array. Our method sequentially fires each sensor in a
camera array with a small time offset and assembles captured frames into a
high-speed video according to the time stamps. The resulting video, however,
suffers from parallax jittering caused by the viewpoint difference among
sensors in the camera array. To address this problem, we develop a dedicated
novel view synthesis algorithm that transforms the video frames as if they were
captured by a single reference sensor. Specifically, for any frame from a
non-reference sensor, we find the two temporally neighboring frames captured by
the reference sensor. Using these three frames, we render a new frame with the
same time stamp as the non-reference frame but from the viewpoint of the
reference sensor. Specifically, we segment these frames into super-pixels and
then apply local content-preserving warping to warp them to form the new frame.
We employ a multi-label Markov Random Field method to blend these warped
frames. Our experiments show that our method can produce high-quality and
high-speed video of a wide variety of scenes with large parallax, scene
dynamics, and camera motion and outperforms several baseline and
state-of-the-art approaches.
