Abstract

See full text

A method of tracking a pose of a moving camera includes receiving a first image from a camera, receiving a sequence of digitized images from said camera, recording, for each of said sequence of digitized images, the pose and 2D correspondences of landmarks, reconstructing a location and appearance of a 2-dimensional texture patch from 2D correspondences of the landmarks by triangulation and optimization, computing back-projection errors by comparing said reconstructed texture patch with said first received image; and reconstructing said location and appearance of said 2-dimensional texture patch from the 2D correspondences of the landmarks of said sequence of digitized images by triangulation and optimization after eliminating those landmarks with large back-projection errors.
