PRECISION LANDMARK LOCATION FOR MACHINE VISION AND PHOTGRAMMETRY - FINDING AND ACHIEVING...

Sinopse

The applications of image - based measurement are many and various: image - guided surgery, mobile - robot navigation, component alignment, part inspection and photogrammetry, among others. In all these applications, landmarks are detected and located in images, and measurements made from those locations. Precision Landmark Location for Machine Vision and Photogrammetry addresses the ubiquitous problem of measurement error associated with determining the location of landmarks in images. With a detailed model of the image formation process and landmark location estimation, the Cramér - Rao Lower Bound (CRLB) theory of statistics is applied to determine the least possible measurement uncertainty in a given situation.
