چکیده

This paper addresses the recovery of structure and motion from two uncalibrated images of a scene under ful l perspective or under affine projection. Epipolar geometry, projective reconstruction, and affine reconstruction are elaborated in a way such that everyone having knowledge of linear algebra can understand the discussion without difficulty. A general expression of the fundamental matr ix is derived which is valid for any projection model without lens distortion (including ful l perspective and affine camera). A new technique for affine reconstruct ion from two affine images is developed, which consists in first estimating the affine epipolar geometry and then performing a triangulation for each point match wi th respect to an implicit common affine basis. This technique is very efficient.

Realization of locally extended affine Lie algebras of type $A_1$

Locally extended affine Lie algebras were introduced by Morita and Yoshii in [J. Algebra 301(1) (2006), 59-81] as a natural generalization of extended affine Lie algebras. After that, various generalizations of these Lie algebras have been investigated by others. It is known that a locally extended affine Lie algebra can be recovered from its centerless core, i.e., the ideal generated by weight...

Mixing Catadioptric and Perspective Cameras

We analyze relations that exist between multiple views of a static scene, where the views can be taken by any mixture of para-catadioptric, perspective or affine cameras. Concretely, we introduce the notion of fundamental matrix, trifocal and quadrifocal tensors for the different possible combinations of these camera types. We also introduce the notion of plane homography for mixed image pairs....

On Analytical Study of Self-Affine Maps

Self-affine maps were successfully used for edge detection, image segmentation, and contour extraction. They belong to the general category of patch-based methods. Particularly, each self-affine map is defined by one pair of patches in the image domain. By minimizing the difference between these patches, the optimal translation vector of the self-affine map is obtained. Almost all image process...

Overview of 3-D Reconstruction from Images

This article summarizes recent advancements of the theories and techniques for 3-D reconstruction from multiple images. We start with the description of the camera imaging geometry as perspective projection in terms of homogeneous coordinates and the definition of the intrinsic and extrinsic parameters of the camera. Next, we described the epipolar geometry for two, three, and four cameras, int...

Linear Multi View Reconstruction with Missing Data

General multi view reconstruction from affine or projective cameras has so far been solved most efficiently using methods of factorizing image data matrices into camera and scene parameters. This can be done directly for affine cameras [18] and after computing epipolar geometry for projective cameras [17]. A notorious problem has been the fact that these factorization methods require all points...
