Abstract :
In structure from motion algorithms, the error in the estimated motion affects each reconstructed 3-D point in a systematic way. The authors attempt to isolate the effect of the motion error as correlations in the structure error and show theoretically that these correlations can improve existing multi-frame structure from motion techniques. Experimental results and previously reported work confirm the theoretical predictions
