Inhaltsangabe

The image taken by a moving camera changes with time. These image motions contain information about the motion of the camera and about the shapes of the objects in the field of view. There are two main types of image motion, finite displacements and image velocities. Finite displacements are described by the point correspondences between two images of the same scene taken from different positions. Image velocities are the velocities of the points in the image as they move over the projection surface. Reconstruction is the task of obtaining from the image-motions information about the camera motion or about the shapes of objects in the field of view. In this book the theory underlying reconstruction is described. Reconstruction from image motion is the subject matter of two different sci­ entific disciplines, photogrammetry and computer vision. In photogrammetry the accuracy of reconstruction is emphasised; in computer vision the emphasis is on methods for obtaining information from images in real time in order to guide a mechanical device such as a robot arm or an automatic vehicle. This book arises from recent work carried out in computer vision. Computer vision is a young field but it is developing rapidly. The earliest papers on reconstruction in the computer vision literature date back only to the mid 1970s. As computer vision develops, the mathematical techniques applied to the analysis of recon­ struction become more appropriate and more powerful.

Reseña del editor

"Theory of Reconstruction from Image Motion" presents the mathematics underlying the reconstruction of camera motion from the movements of points in the camera image. It describes recent work employing mathematical methodsdrawn from linear algebra, projective geometry, algebraic geometry, the theory of transversality and the theory of least squares approximation. Manyproblems in reconstruction are best tackled using methods from projective oralgebraic geometry. However, these methods are not widely known to researchers in computer vision. As a consequence, purely algebraic methods are often used instead, leading to large and complicated expressions, which are difficult to interpret. Many of the arguments in thisvolume illustrate the speed and efficiency of geometric methods for solving certain problems that arise in reconstruction. This book is a good starting point for anyone interested in the application of different mathematical techniques to the rapidly expanding field of computer vision, especially in the areas of vehicle guidance, robotics and remote sensing.
