Superpixel-based Two-view Deterministic Fitting for Multiple-structure Data
This paper proposes a two-view deterministic geometric model fitting method,
termed Superpixel-based Deterministic Fitting (SDF), for multiple-structure
data. SDF starts from superpixel segmentation, which effectively captures prior
information of feature appearances. The feature appearances are beneficial to
reduce the computational complexity for deterministic fitting methods. SDF also
includes two original elements, i.e., a deterministic sampling algorithm and a
novel model selection algorithm. The two algorithms are tightly coupled to
boost the performance of SDF in both speed and accuracy. Specifically, the
proposed sampling algorithm leverages the grouping cues of superpixels to
generate reliable and consistent hypotheses. The proposed model selection
algorithm further makes use of desirable properties of the generated
hypotheses, to improve the conventional fit-and-remove framework for more
efficient and effective performance. The key characteristic of SDF is that it
can efficiently and deterministically estimate the parameters of model
instances in multi-structure data. Experimental results demonstrate that the
proposed SDF shows superiority over several state-of-the-art fitting methods
for real images with single-structure and multiple-structure data.Comment: Accepted by European Conference on Computer Vision (ECCV
Randomized hybrid linear modeling by local best-fit flats
The hybrid linear modeling problem is to identify a set of d-dimensional
affine sets in a D-dimensional Euclidean space. It arises, for example, in
object tracking and structure from motion. The hybrid linear model can be
considered as the second simplest (behind linear) manifold model of data. In
this paper we will present a very simple geometric method for hybrid linear
modeling based on selecting a set of local best fit flats that minimize a
global l1 error measure. The size of the local neighborhoods is determined
automatically by the Jones' l2 beta numbers; it is proven under certain
geometric conditions that good local neighborhoods exist and are found by our
method. We also demonstrate how to use this algorithm for fast determination of
the number of affine subspaces. We give extensive experimental evidence
demonstrating the state of the art accuracy and speed of the algorithm on
synthetic and real hybrid linear data.Comment: To appear in the proceedings of CVPR 201
