The Factorization Method with Linear Motions

Tech. Report, CMU-RI-TR-99-23, Robotics Institute, Carnegie Mellon University, October, 1999

Abstract

In this paper we describe the factorization method with linear motions. We design a unified representation of scene structure and moving objects by assuming that the objects are moving linearly and with constant speeds. The representation enables the subspace constraints be used to the measurement matrix so that the scene structure, moving trajectories and camera motion are reconstructed simultaneously. We also discuss the solutions for degenerate cases. Preliminary results on synthetic data are also presented.
