Abstract

A new method for estimating the fundamental matrix is proposed. Using eigenvectors corresponding to the two smallest eigenvalues obtained by the orthogonal least-squares technique, we construct a 3 × 3 generalized eigenvalue problem. Its solution gives not only the fundamental matrix but also the corresponding epipoles. The new method performs well as compared with several existing linear methods.
