LS-RANSAC: find spatial structures directly from the image
摘要
A RANSAC estimator works by continuously generating the sample sets, and comparing the quality among the models computed from them. After multiple iterations, a so-far-the-best model will be chosen as the final output. In this paper, we re-examine the RANSAC used in image matching application, more precisely, in calculating homography matrices, and propose a RANSAC based algorithm, named LS-RANSAC (Local spatial structure-RANSAC). It innovatively introduces information from image pairs directly into the RANSAC estimator and extracts spatial structural connections between points from it. The proposed algorithm works as the local-optimization step, we evaluate our method on the Extreme view dataset (EVD Dataset) and it shows a competitive performance.
