1) AX=B

X=A-1B

2) AX=0

X belongs to A’s null space and is sometimes called a null vector of A. X can be characterized as a right singular vector corresponding to a singular value of A that is zero.

• Equation in homogeneous coordinate systems is not an identity, but a calculation formula.1) If we have a transform matrix and input vectors, then we can calculate the

output vectors.

2) However, when we have input vectors and output vectors, we only know that LHS (Left Hand Side) and RHS (Right Hand Side) is in a relationship of scalar production, that is, equal up to scale.

SVD vs. Pseudo InverseSVD vs. Pseudo Inverse

• Disadvantage of SVD1) The computation of SVD is heavy.2) If the unknown should be found deterministically, one more equation is needed.

• Therefore, with ignorable error, pseudo inverse is preferable.• It is noticeable that SVD is LS (Least Squared) estimate w.r.t. algebraic error and

pseudo inverse is LS w.r.t. output variable.

ex) ax+by+c=0 [x y 1][a b c]’=0 SVD minimizing the error orthogonal to the line.

y=mx+b y=[x 1][m b]’ pseudo inverse minimizing the error of output variable, y.

Fisheye Lens CalibrationFisheye Lens Calibration

Generic Camera Model [1]Generic Camera Model [1]

The perspective projection of a pinhole camera can be described by the following formula

where θ is the angle between the principal axis and the incoming ray, r is the distance between the image point and the principal point, and f is the focal length.

Fish-eye lenses instead are usually designed to obey one of the following projections:

The real lenses do not, however, exactly follow the designed projection model.

From the viewpoint of automatic calibration, it would also be useful if we had only one model suitable for different types of lenses. Therefore, we consider projections in the general form

where, without any loss of generality, even powers have been dropped. This is due to the fact that we may extend r onto the negative side as an odd function while the odd powers span the set of continuous odd functions.

We found that first five terms, up to the ninth power of , give enough degrees of freedom for good approximation of different projection curves.

Assuming that Caltech Calibration Toolbox can successfully estimate effective focal lengths Fx

). Only radial terms are considered herein.

Therefore, Caltech Calibration Toolbox is thought to estimate only a1

like Eq. (2). Where, kc

is the estimate of distortion parameters.

Because there are three inflection points, total radial distortion curve has four curve portions with different shape. positive a1

It is found that the incorrect estimation of radial distortion parameters is the inevitable result of least square based curve fitting with limited data. As mentioned previously, in practical situation, ru

data covering whole lens FOV is inaccessible, because plane calibration pattern cannot be extended unlimitedly.

Refinement by Inverse mappingRefinement by Inverse mapping--Based Extrapolation [2]Based Extrapolation [2]

Because limited ru

range used for least square based curve fitting is the primary cause of incorrect estimation, by securing wide range of

data, distortion parameters can be refined. Compared with ru

graph, rd

graph, i.e. inverse mapping, has suitable characteristics for least square based curve fitting.
