It is known that epipolar constraint can be augmented with orientation by formulating it in the oriented projective geometry. This oriented epipolar constraint requires knowing the orientations (signs of overall scales) ...

A novel procedure for establishing wide-baseline correspondence is introduced. Tentative correspondences are established by matching photometrically normalised colour measurements represented in a local affine frame. The ...

A RANSAC-based algorithm for robust estimation of epipolar geometry from point correspondences in the possible presence of a dominant scene plane is presented. The algorithm handles scenes with (i) all points in a single ...

A new robust matching method is proposed. The progressive sample consensus (PROSAC) algorithm exploits the linear ordering defined on the set of correspondences by a similarity function used in establishing tentative ...

In this paper we investigate some aspects of the interaction between colour constancy and object recognition. We demonstrate that even under severe changes of illumination, many objects are reliably recognised if relying ...

The efficiency of epipolar geometry estimation by RANSAC is improved by exploiting the oriented epipolar constraint. Performance evaluation shows that the enhancement brings up to a two-fold speed-up. The orientation test ...

A randomized model verification strategy for RANSAC is presented. The proposed method finds, like RANSAC, a solution that is optimal with user-specified probability. The solution is found in time that is close to the ...

We propose a novel representation of local image structure and a matching scheme that are insensitive to a wide range of appearance changes. The representation is a collection of local affine frames that are constructed ...

A randomized model verification strategy for RANSAC is presented. The proposed method finds, like RANSAC, a solution that is optimal with user-controllable probability n. A provably optimal model verification strategy is ...

A novel algorithm for robust RANSAC-like estimation of epipolar geometry (of uncalibrated camera pair) from two correspondences of local affine frames (LAFs) is presented. Each LAF is constructed from three points independently ...
