This paper presents an analysis of various well established focus measures with varying texture reflectance and source illumination. Five focus measures are selected from the literature. Three different microscopic objects are selected for testing the texture reflectance. Three different levels are opted for source illumination. Among the passive methods, Shape From Focus (SFF) is selected to test the focus measures for accuracy and precision of depth estimation. © 2009 IEEE. %R 10.1109/ICCEE.2009.148 %D 2009 %J 2009 International Conference on Computer and Electrical Engineering, ICCEE 2009 %L scholars593 %O cited By 2; Conference of 2009 International Conference on Computer and Electrical Engineering, ICCEE 2009 ; Conference Date: 28 December 2009 Through 30 December 2009; Conference Code:79725
