平面结构是一种最为常见和重要的几何特征,平面提取在很多领域有着重要的应用。提出了一种毋须恢复摄像机三维信息、直接从视频序列中提取出平面的算法。先通过在视频相邻帧之间建立极线约束下的射影变换模型,来计算出由平面诱导的单应,而每一个单应都对应着场景中的一个平面;然后根据计算出的单应对视频的每一帧进行分割,进一步提取出视频中的平面结构。一系列真实视频序列的实验验证了本算法的有效性和稳定性。

基于人造物体直线段结构特征的不变性识别

传统的用假设验证法进行三维物体识别的方法需要通过一组非线性方程组求解从模型到场景的坐标系变换,具有非常高的复杂度.文中提出了一种基于能够表明物体几何构造的直线段特征的人造物体识别方法,将假设验证法中对于全局坐标系变换的求解分散在各个平面单应性变换的求解中,降低了求解的复杂度.该方法首先利用几何不变量预匹配特征点,进而假设并求出场景和模型平面之间的单应矩阵,随后通过模型与场景之间直线段特征匹配的结果进行验证.实验证明,该方法能够快速准确地识别含有较多共面直线段特征的人造物体.

2 1/2 D Visual Servoing with Respect to Unknown Objects Through a New Estimation Scheme of Camera Displacement

Classical visual servoing techniques need a strong a priori knowledge of the shape and the dimensions of the observed objects. In this paper, we present how the 2 1/2 D visual servoing scheme we have recently developed, can be used with unknown objects characterized by a set of points. Our scheme is based on the estimation of the camera displacement from two views, given by the current and desired images. Since vision-based robotics tasks generally necessitate to be performed at video rate, we focus only on linear algorithms. Classical linear methods are based on the computation of the essential matrix. In this paper, we propose a different method, based on the estimation of the homography matrix related to a virtual plane attached to the object. We show that our method provides a more stable estimation when the epipolar geometry degenerates. This is particularly important in visual servoing to obtain a stable control law, especially near the convergence of the system. Finally, experimental results confirm the improvement in the stability, robustness, and behaviour of our scheme with respect to classical methods.     

A Linear Algorithm for Computing the Homography from Conics in Correspondence

This paper presents a study, based on conic correspondences, on the relationship between two perspective images acquired by an uncalibrated camera. We show that for a pair of corresponding conics, the parameters representing the conics satisfy a linear constraint. To be more specific, the parameters that represent a conic in one image are transformed by a five-dimensional projective transformation to the parameters that represent the corresponding conic in another image. We also show that this transformation is expressed as the symmetric component of the tensor product of the transformation based on point/line correspondences and itself. In addition, we present a linear algorithm for uniquely determining the corresponding point-based transformation from a given conic-based transformation up to a scale factor. Accordingly, conic correspondences enable us to easily handle both points and lines in uncalibrated images of a planar object.
