Title：Simultaneous Correspondences and Motion Estimation in Geometric Computer Vision
题目：几何计算机视觉中对应点与运动的同时估计
摘要/Abstract:
In this talk, I will introduce our recent efforts of estimating correspondences and motion simultaneously in geometric computer vision. Particularly I will discuss two of our ongoing research projects on this topic in details.
Motion segmentation can be addressed as a subspace clustering problem, assuming that the trajectories of interest points are known. However, establishing point correspondences is in itself a challenging task. Existing approaches tackle the correspondence estimation and motion segmentation problems separately. We introduce an approach to performing motion segmentation without any prior knowledge of point correspondences. We formulate this problem in terms of Partial Permutation Matrices (PPMs) and aim to match feature descriptors while simultaneously encouraging point locations to satisfy subspace constraints. This lets us handle outliers in both point locations and feature appearance. The resulting optimization problem can be solved via the Alternating Direction Method of Multipliers (ADMM), where each subproblem has an efficient solution. In non-rigid structure from motion, given point correspondences across multiple images, it has been shown that 3D non-rigid structure can be recovered through factorization techniques. We present a unified framework to simultaneously solve for point correspondences and non-rigid structure by using the PPMs, aiming at establishing point correspondences and enforcing low-rank constraint in the deformable shape. Our new formulation can handle outliers and missing data elegantly.

Yuchao Dai is currently an ARC DECRA Fellow with the Research School of Engineering at the Australian National University, Canberra. He received the B.E. degree, M.E degree and Ph.D. degree all in signal and information processing under supervision of Prof. Mingyi He from Northwestern Polytechnical University, Xi’an, China, in 2005, 2008 and 2012, respectively. He was a visiting student at ANU from Oct. 2008 to Oct. 2009 under the supervision of Prof. Richard Hartley and Dr. Hongdong Li with the support of the China Scholarship Council. His research interests include structure from motion, multi-view geometry, human-computer interaction, compressive sensing and optimization. He has published papers in both top-ranked journals and prestigious conferences such as IEEE TPAMI, IJCV, ICCV, CVPR and ECCV. He won the best paper award in CVPR 2012 (the first one in mainland China). His recent work aims at developing dense non-rigid structure recovery from monocular video sequences, with a view to support analysis and understanding of complex dynamic scene.
