Abstract

Structure from motion is one of the central problems in computational vision.  The mathematics of this problem has been the subject of intensive study over the past three decades and is now quite well understood. However, scalable methods for solving large scale reconstruction problems are not as yet well developed and remain  the subject of active research.

In this talk we will present some ways of attacking the large scale structure from motion problem. This includes methods for reducing the problem size by finding a small "core" set of images to bootstrap the reconstruction, and methods for numerically solving for n-view structure and motion given pair-wise reconstructions.
