Title
Parametric Subpixel Matchpoint Recovery with Uncertainty Estimation: A Statistical Approach
Abstract
We present a novel matchpoint acquisition method capable of producing accurate correspondences at subpixel preci- sion. Given the known representation of the point to be matched, such as a projected fiducial in a structured light system, the method estimates the fiducial location and its expected uncertainty. Improved matchpoint precision has application in a number of calibration tasks, and uncer- tainty estimates can be used to significantly improve overall calibration results. A simple parametric model captures the relationship be- tween the known fiducial and its corresponding position, shape, and intensity on the image plane. For each match- point pair, these unknown model parameters are recovered using maximum likelihood estimation to determine a sub- pixel center for the fiducial. The uncertainty of the match- point center is estimated by performing forward error anal- ysis on the expected image noise. Uncertainty estimates used in conjunction with the accurate matchpoints can im- prove calibration accuracy for multi-view systems.
