A Unified Framework for Quasi-Linear Projective, Affine and Metric Bundle Adjustment and Pose Estimation

چکیده
Obtaining 3d models from large image sequences is a major issue in computer vision. One a the main tools used to obtain accurate structure and motion estimates is bundle adjustment. Bundle adjustment is usually performed using non-linear Newton-type optimizers such as LevenbergMarquardt which might be quite slow when handling a large number of points or views. We propose an algorithm for bundle adjustment based on quasi-linear optimization. The method is straightforward to implement and relies on solving weighted linear systems obtained as simple functions of the input data. The algorithm acts in projective or metric space, using full perspective or affine projection. It can handle any number of views and points as well as missing data. We also provide a quasi-linear n ≥ 3-points pose estimator. Experimental results on simulated and real data show that the algorithm is as accurate as standard techniques while requiring less computational time to converge.

متن کاملCamera Pose Estimation in Unknown Environments using a Sequence of Wide-Baseline Monocular Images
In this paper, a feature-based technique for the camera pose estimation in a sequence of wide-baseline images has been proposed. Camera pose estimation is an important issue in many computer vision and robotics applications, such as, augmented reality and visual SLAM. The proposed method can track captured images taken by hand-held camera in room-sized workspaces with maximum scene depth of 3-4...
متن کاملON THE LIFTS OF SEMI-RIEMANNIAN METRICS
In this paper, we extend Sasaki metric for tangent bundle of a Riemannian manifold and Sasaki-Mok metric for the frame bundle of a Riemannian manifold [I] to the case of a semi-Riemannian vector bundle over a semi- Riemannian manifold. In fact, if E is a semi-Riemannian vector bundle over a semi-Riemannian manifold M, then by using an arbitrary (linear) connection on E, we can make E, as a...
متن کاملPose Estimation of Line Cameras Using Linear Features
Pose estimation, which determines the position and the attitude of the camera, is a prerequisite for a variety of photogrammetric tasks such as image matching, surface reconstruction, ortho-photo generation, and object recognition. As digital imagery is becoming more popular in photogrammetric applications, features other than points are increasingly employed in pose estimation. For frame image...
