Key-frame selection Select key-frame when F yields a better model than H • Use Robust Geometric Information Criterion • Given view i as a key-frame, pick view j as next key-frame for first view where GRIC(Fij)>GRIC(Hij) (or a few views later) (Torr ’98) model complexity bad fit penalty H-GRIC F-GRIC (Pollefeys et al.’02) Visual 3D Modeling using Cameras and Camera Networks

Epipolar geometry computation:robust estimation (RANSAC) Step 1. Extract features Step 2. Compute a set of potential matches Step 3. do Step 3.1 select minimal sample (i.e. 7 matches) Step 3.2 compute solution(s) for F Step 3.3 count inliers, if not promising stop until (#inliers,#samples)<95% (generate hypothesis) (verify hypothesis) Step 4. Compute F based on all inliers Step 5. Look for additional matches Step 6. Refine F based on all correct matches Visual 3D Modeling using Cameras and Camera Networks

Dealing with dominant planar scenes (Pollefeys et al., ECCV‘02) • USaM fails when common features are all in a plane • Solution: part 1 Model selection to detect problem Visual 3D Modeling using Cameras and Camera Networks
Dealing with dominant planar scenes (Pollefeys et al., ECCV‘02) • USaM fails when common features are all in a plane • Solution: part 2 Delay ambiguous computations until after self-calibration (couple self-calibration over all 3D parts) Visual 3D Modeling using Cameras and Camera Networks
Refine Structure and Motion • Use projective bundle adjustment • Sparse bundle allows very efficient computation (2 levels) • Take radial distortion into account (1 or 2 parameters) Visual 3D Modeling using Cameras and Camera Networks

Practical linear self-calibration (Pollefeys et al., ECCV‘02) Don’t treat all constraints equal after normalization! (relatively accurate for most cameras) (only rough aproximation, but still usefull to avoid degenerate configurations) when fixating point at image-center not only absolute quadric diag(1,1,1,0) satisfies ICCV98 eqs., but also diag(1,1,1,a), i.e. real or imaginary spheres!

Camera Networks • CMU’s Dome, 3D Room, etc. • MIT’s Visual Hull • Maryland’s Keck lab, ETHZ’s BLUE-C and more • Recently, Shape-from-Silhouette/Visual-Hull systems have been very popular Visual 3D Modeling using Cameras and Camera Networks
Camera Networks • Offline Calibration Procedure • Special Calibration Data • Planar Pattern • moving LED • Requires physical access to environment • Active Camera Networks • How do we maintain calibration ? Visual 3D Modeling using Cameras and Camera Networks
An example P. Sand, L. McMillan, and J. Popovic. Continuous Capture of Skin Deformation. ACM Transactions on Graphics 22, 3, 578-586, 2003. • 4 NTSC videos recorded by 4 computers for 4 minutes • Manually synchronized and calibrated using MoCap system Visual 3D Modeling using Cameras and Camera Networks
Can we do without explicit calibration? • Feature-based? • Hard to match features between very different views • Not many features on foreground • Background often doesn’t overlap much between views • Silhouette-based? • Necessary for visual-hull anyway • But approach is not obvious Visual 3D Modeling using Cameras and Camera Networks
x2 x1 x’2 x’1 Multiple View Geometry of Silhouettes • Frontier Points • Epipolar Tangents • Points on Silhouettes in 2 views do not correspond in general except for projected Frontier Points • Always at least 2 extremal frontier points per silhouette • In general, correspondence only over two views Visual 3D Modeling using Cameras and Camera Networks
Calibration from Silhouettes: prior work Epipolar Geometry from Silhouettes • Porril and Pollard, ’91 • Astrom, Cipolla and Giblin, ’96 Structure-and-motion from Silhouettes • Joshi, Ahuja and Ponce’95 (trinocular rig/rigid object) • Vijayakumar, Kriegman and Ponce’96 (orthographic) • Wong and Cipolla’01 (circular motion, at least to start) • Yezzi and Soatto’03 (only refinement) None really applicable to calibrate visual hull system Visual 3D Modeling using Cameras and Camera Networks
Camera Network Calibration from Silhouettes (Sinha, Pollefeys and McMillan, submitted) • 7 or more corresponding frontier points needed to compute epipolar geometry for general motion • Hard to find on single silhouette and possibly occluded • However, Visual Hull systems record many silhouettes! Visual 3D Modeling using Cameras and Camera Networks
Camera Network Calibration from Silhouettes • If we know the epipoles, it is simple • Draw 3 outer epipolar tangents (from two silhouettes) • Compute corresponding line homography H-T (not unique) • Epipolar Geometry F=[e]xH Visual 3D Modeling using Cameras and Camera Networks
Let’s just sample: RANSAC • Repeat • Generate random hypothesis for epipoles • Compute epipolar geometry • Verify hypothesis and count inliers until satisfying hypothesis • Refine hypothesis • minimize symmetric transfer error of frontier points • include more inliers Until error and inliers stable (use conservative threshold, e.g. 5 pixels, but abort early if not promising) (use strict threshold, e.g. 1 pixels) We’ll need an efficient representation as we are likely to have to do many trials!
