Punchline2: This transformation is INVERTIBLE! Robert Collins CSE486, Penn State Special Case : Frontal Plane What if the planar surface is perpendicular to the optic axis (Z axis of camera coord system)? Then world rotation matrix simplies: Robert Collins CSE486, Penn State Frontal Plane So the homography for a frontal plane simplies: Similarity Transformation!

There are 9 numbers h11,…,h33 , so are there 9 DOF? No. Note that we can multiply all hij by nonzero k without changing the equations: Robert Collins CSE486, Penn State Enforcing 8 DOF One approach: Set h33 = 1. Second approach: Impose unit vector constraint Subject to the constraint: Robert Collins CSE486, Penn State L.S. using Algebraic Distance Setting h33 = 1 Multiplying through by denominator Rearrange Robert Collins CSE486, Penn State Algebraic Distance, h33=1 (cont) 2N x 8 8 x 1 2N x 1 Point 1 Point 2 Point 3 Point 4 additional points Robert Collins CSE486, Penn State Algebraic Distance, h33=1 (cont) Linear 2Nx8 8x1 2Nx1 equations A h = b 8x2N 2Nx8 8x1 8x2N 2Nx1 Solve: AT A h = AT b 8x8 8x1 8x1 (AT A) h = (AT b) -1 h = (AT A) (AT b) Matlab: h = A \ b Robert Collins CSE486, Penn State Caution: Numeric Conditioning R.Hartley: “In Defense of the Eight Point Algorithm” Observation: Linear estimation of projective transformation parameters from point correspondences often suffer from poor “conditioning” of the matrices involves. This means the solution is sensitive to noise in the points (even if there are no outliers). To get better answers, precondition the matrices by performing a normalization of each point set by: • translating center of mass to the origin • scaling so that average distance of points from origin is sqrt(2). • do this normalization to each point set independently Robert Collins CSE486, Penn State Hartley’s PreConditioning -1 -1 PointSet1 H = T2 S2H? Hnorm S1 T1 PointSet2 Translate T center of mass T2 1 to origin Scale so average S1 point dist is sqrt(2) S2 Estimate Hnorm Robert Collins CSE486, Penn State A More General Approach What might be wrong with setting h33 = 1? If h33 actually = 0, we can’t get the right answer.

(if only 4 points, that eigenvalue will be 0).
