Multiple View Geometry: in Computer Vision

This document provides an overview of a course on multiple view geometry in computer vision. The course objectives are to understand the geometric relationships between views of a scene from different cameras and parameter estimation techniques. Students will learn to reconstruct scene geometry and camera properties from real images using state-of-the-art algorithms. Applications discussed include match moving in film production, 3D modeling, and camera motion estimation from video.

Applications
• MatchMoving In cinematography, match moving is a
visual-effects technique that allows the insertion of computer graphics
into live-action footage with correct position, scale, orientation, and
motion relative to the photographed objects in the shot.
