The method comprises the steps of: (a) marking a plurality of feature points on a three-dimensional model and corresponding feature points on a two-dimensional query image; (b) for all possible subsets of three two-dimensional feature points marked in step (a), computing the four possible three-dimensional rigid motion solutions of a set of three points in three-dimensional space such that after each of the four rigid motions, under a fixed perspective projection, the three three-dimensional points are mapped precisely to the three corresponding two-dimensional points; (c) for each solution found in step (b), computing an error measure derived from the errors in the projections of all three-dimensional marked points in the three-dimensional model which were not among the three points used in the solution, but which did have corresponding marked points in the two-dimensional query image; (d) ranking the solutions from step (c) based on the computed error measure; and (e) selecting the best solution based on the ranking in step (d). Also provided is a program storage device readable by machine, tangibly embodying a program of instructions executable by the machine to perform the method steps of the present invention and a computer program product embodied in a computer-readable medium for carrying out the methods of the present invention.

Abstract: A method for estimating the optical flow between a plurality of images is provided. The method includes obtaining a motion orientation component and a motion magnitude component. Determining the motion orientation component includes creating, a first graph using spatio-temporal derivatives of the plurality of images, solving for a first maximum-flow in the first graph to thereby obtain a first minimum-cut therefrom, and computing the motion orientation component from the first minimum-cut. Determining the motion magnitude component includes creating a second graph using spatio-temporal derivatives of the plurality of images and the motion orientation component, solving for a second maximum-flow in the second graph to thereby obtain a second minimum-cut therefrom, and computing the motion magnitude component from the second minimum-cut. The motion orientation component and the motion magnitude component together comprise the estimate of the optical flow between the plurality of images. The method properly models errors in the measurement of image derivatives while enforcing a brightness constraint, and efficiently provides a globally optimal solution to the optical flow in the context of the model.

Abstract: A technique for compensating for egomotion of the camera used to record a pair of two-dimensional views of a scene when the pair of images is to be used to provide a three dimensional representation of the scene. The technique involves comparing histograms of the intensity levels of pixels of corresponding epipolar lines in the pair of images for assumed amounts of egomotion to identify the amount that results in the smallest total of the sums of squared differences of the histograms.
