The essential matrix incorporates relative rotation and translation parameters of two calibrated cameras. The well-known algebraic characterization of essential matrices, i.e. necessary and sufficient conditions under which an arbitrary…

Extracting planes from a 3D scene is useful for downstream tasks in robotics and augmented reality. In this paper we tackle the problem of estimating the planar surfaces in a scene from posed images. Our first finding is that a surprisingly…

This paper proposes a geometric interpretation of the angles and scales which the orientation- and scale-covariant feature detectors, e.g. SIFT, provide. Two new general constraints are derived on the scales and rotations which can be used…

We aim at estimating the fundamental matrix in two views from five correspondences of rotation invariant features obtained by e.g.\ the SIFT detector. The proposed minimal solver first estimates a homography from three correspondences…

Correspondences between k-tuples of points are key in multiple view geometry and motion analysis. Regular transformations are posed by homographies between two projective planes that serves as structural models for images. Such…

In this paper, we propose the first minimal solutions for estimating the semi-generalized homography given a perspective and a generalized camera. The proposed solvers use five 2D-2D image point correspondences induced by a scene plane. One…

This paper proposes a strategy for efficient geometrical verification in unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) image matching. First, considering the complex transformation model between correspondence set in the image-space, feature points of…

The homography matrix is a key component in various vision-based robotic tasks. Traditionally, homography estimation algorithms are classified into feature- or intensity-based. The main advantages of the latter are their versatility,…

In this paper, we propose a novel approach for recovering focal lengths from three-view homographies. By examining the consistency of normal vectors between two homographies, we derive new explicit constraints between the focal lengths and…

We present a large-scale dataset of Planes in 3D, Pi3D, of roughly 1000 planes observed in 10 000 images from the 1DSfM dataset, and HEB, a large-scale homography estimation benchmark leveraging Pi3D. The applications of the Pi3D dataset…

Homography estimation is a basic image alignment method in many applications. It is usually conducted by extracting and matching sparse feature points, which are error-prone in low-light and low-texture images. On the other hand, previous…

Human instance matting aims to estimate an alpha matte for each human instance in an image, which is challenging as it easily fails in complex cases requiring disentangling mingled pixels belonging to multiple instances along hairy and thin…

We study betweenness preserving mappings (we call them \emph{monotone}) defined on subsets of the plane. Once the domain is a convex set, such a mapping is either the restriction of a homography, or its image is contained in the union of a…

We study the set of image tuples arising from fixed cameras observing varying planar 3-dimensional point configurations. We derive a formula for the number of complex critical points of the triangulation problem, which seeks to reconstruct…

Constrained optimization problems are often characterized by multiple constraints that, in the practice, must be satisfied with different tolerance levels. While some constraints are hard and as such must be satisfied with zero-tolerance,…

We present a novel method to estimate the motion matrix between overlapping pairs of 3D views in the context of indoor scenes. We use the Manhattan world assumption to introduce lightweight geometric constraints under the form of planes…

Over the past few decades, a significant rise of camera-based applications for traffic monitoring has occurred. Governments and local administrations are increasingly relying on the data collected from these cameras to enhance road safety…

The reduced density matrix is variationally optimized for the two-dimensional Hubbard model. Exploiting all symmetries present in the system, we have been able to study $6\times6$ lattices at various fillings and different values for the…

Change in viewpoint is one of the major factors for variation in object appearance across different images. Thus, view-invariant object recognition is a challenging and important image understanding task. In this paper, we propose a method…

The matching of multiple objects (e.g. shapes or images) is a fundamental problem in vision and graphics. In order to robustly handle ambiguities, noise and repetitive patterns in challenging real-world settings, it is essential to take…
