Critical Motions in Euclidean Structure from Motion
نویسندگان
چکیده
We investigate the motions that lead to ambiguous Euclidean scene reconstructions under several common calibration constraints, giving a complete description of such critical motions for: (i) internally calibrated orthographic and perspective cameras; (ii) in two images, for cameras with unknown focal lengths, either different or equal. One aim of the work was to evaluate the potential of modern algebraic geometry tools for rigorously proving properties of vision algorithms, so we use idealtheoretic calculations as well as classical algebra and geometry. We also present numerical experiments showing the effects of near-critical configurations for the varying and fixed focal length

Critical Motion Sequences and Conjugacy of Ambiguous Euclidean Reconstructions
This paper deals with critical motion sequences, i.e. sequences of camera motions that lead to inherent ambiguities in uncalibrated Euclidean reconstruction or self-calibration. Concretely, we focus on how to deal with ambiguous reconstructions. We show that the ambiguous Euclidean reconstructions from a critical motion sequence are conjugated in a special sense. We discuss how these conjugacie...
متن کاملLinear Stratified Self–Calibration and Euclidean Reconstruction
Abstract We present a linear algorithm for self–calibration which, like the Sturm/Triggs method for projective reconstruction, is exact in the limit of small camera motions or sideways motions with rotations around the optical axis. Unlike previous algorithms, our approach recovers the available partial information about the internal parameters for “critical” motion sequences, where full recove...
متن کاملStress Patterns in Single Deck Floating Roofs Subjected to Ground Motion Accelerations
This paper investigates the induced stresses in circular single deck roofs floating on seismically excited storage tanks. Equations of motion are derived using variational principle. Response of deck floating roofs is evaluated for two different classes of ground motions; near-source and long-period far-field records. Besides time histories and frequency contents for a specific tank, peak value...
متن کاملAssessment of Near-Fault Ground Motion Effects on the Fragility Curves of Tall Steel Moment Resisting Frames
Nowadays it is common to use the fragility curves in probabilistic methods to determine the collapse probability resulting from an earthquake. The uncertainties exist in intensity and frequency content of the earthquake records are considered as the most effective parameters in developing the fragility curves. The pulse-type records reported in the near-fault regions might lead to the major dam...
متن کاملCritical Motion Sequences for Monocular Self-Calibration and Uncalibrated Euclidean Reconstruction
In this paper, sequences of camera motions that lead to inherent ambiguities in uncalibrated Euclidean reconstruction or self-calibration are studied. Our main contribution is a complete, detailed classification of these critical motion sequences (CMS). The practically important classes are identified and their degrees of ambiguity are derived. We also discuss some practical issues, especially ...
