Progressive Correspondence Pruning by Consensus Learning

Mathieu Salzmann, Chen Zhao, Chenxu Zhao

Correspondence pruning aims to correctly remove false matches (outliers) from an initial set of putative correspondences. The pruning process is challenging since putative matches are typically extremely unbalanced, largely dominated by outliers, and the r ...

Real-time camera pose estimation for sports fields

Stefano Savarè, Pascal Fua, Charles Dubout, Horesh Beny Ben Shitrit, Pablo Marquez Neila, Leonardo Citraro

Given an image sequence featuring a portion of a sports field filmed by a moving and uncalibrated camera, such as the one of the smartphones, our goal is to compute automatically in real time the focal length and extrinsic camera parameters for each image ...

Multi-View Triangulation: Systematic Comparison and an Improved Method

Peng Song

Triangulation is an important task in the 3D reconstruction of computer vision. It seems simple to find the position of a point in 3D space when its 2D perspective projections in multi-view images are given and the corresponding camera projection matrices ...

Bayesian regression explains how human participants handle parameter uncertainty

Michael Herzog, Jean-Pascal Théodor Pfister, Maya Anna Jastrzebowska, Mattew Pachai

Author summary How do humans make prediction when the critical factor that influences the quality of the prediction is hidden? Here, we address this question by conducting a simple psychophysical experiment in which participants had to extrapolate a parabo ...

On Vacuous and Non-Vacuous Generalization Bounds for Deep Neural Networks

Konstantinos Pitas

Deep neural networks have been empirically successful in a variety of tasks, however their theoretical understanding is still poor. In particular, modern deep neural networks have many more parameters than training data. Thus, in principle they should over ...

An Inertial Parallel and Asynchronous Forward-Backward Iteration for Distributed Convex Optimization

Colin Neil Jones, Georgios Stathopoulos

Two characteristics that make convex decomposition algorithms attractive are simplicity of operations and generation of parallelizable structures. In principle, these schemes require that all coordinates update at the same time, i.e., they are synchronous ...
