From: jcowen@asylum.cs.utah.edu (Jonathan Owen)
Subject: Camera Calibration code

Several months ago, I posted to the vision list asking for camera
calibration help.  One response led me to contact Reg Willson, who was
extremely helpful, and sent me his implementation of Roger Tsai's
calibration algorithm.  This code has been put into the Vision List
Archive SHAREWARE subdirectory (anonymous ftp to FTP.TELEOS.COM).

I'd like to get bug reports, so I can filter them and pass them on to
Reg.  Also, if anybody replaces the IMSL stuff w/public domain routines,
I'd like to know.

Thanks,
Jon

Here's the README file:
=======================

The code in this directory was donated by Reg Willson at CMU.  It
is an implementation of Roger Tsai's camera calibration algorithm:

R. Tsai, ``A Versatile Camera Calibration Technique for High-Accuracy
3D Machine Vision Metrology Using Off-the-Shelf TV Cameras and Lenses'',
{\em Radiometry -- (Physics-Based Vision)}, L. Wolff, S. Shafer, G. Healey,
eds., Jones and Bartlett, 1992


Note that these routines use the IMSL library, which is available
at many institutions.  Many of the IMSL routines are derived from
routines that are available as public domain software.  If you do 
not have IMSL, your best bet is to get them and modify them for
use here.  If you do this, we would like a copy to place here
so this code can become more generic.

Jon Owen, 27-May-93


The actual calibration code is contained in the files:

	camera_calibration.c
	camera_calibration.h

Four test programs that make use of the calibration code are:

	c_cal.c		basic coplanar calibration
	c_cal_fo.c	coplanar calibration, full optimization

	n_cal.c		basic noncoplanar calibration
	n_cal_fo.c	noncoplanar calibration, full optimization

Two programs are included to generate synthetic data to test the calibration
code:

	c_synthetic.c	coplanar calibration data generation program
	n_synthetic.c	noncoplanar calibration data generation program
	gasdev.c	random number routine for above

Two test data files are also included:

	c_test.data	synthetic coplanar test data
	n_test.data	synthetic noncoplanar test data

Two log files illustrate the output of the synthetic data generation
programs and the results for each of the calibration programs.

	cc.log		coplanar calibration log
	nc.log		noncoplanar calibration log

A makefile for everything:

	makefile

Two other miscellaneous test programs:

	n_xfd_to_xfu.c
	n_xfd_to_xfu.c

Please feel free to redistribute the code.  Also, if you find
any bugs or deficiencies I would appreciate hearing about them.

Subject: Windows Drivers for Data Translation Framegrabbers?

Is anyone aware of a MS-Windows compatible device driver for framegrabbers
supplied by Data Translation Inc, or more specifically the DT2867 or 
DT2867-LC. We wish to have a MS-Windows menu driven system which will
allow us to step an object through a beam of light and grab an image of
the interacting light and object. The driver supplied by Data Translation
is not compatible with MS-Windows only DOS. While the company can supply
a windows driver as part of their Global Lab software (approx 1500 sterling)
it is not available separately.

From: noran!iowa!kburton@uunet.UU.NET (Kevin Burton)
Subject: Sequential Similarity Detection

In Pratt, "Digital Image Processing" (pp 566-567) an algorithm
entitiled `Sequential Registration' is introduced as a means of
registering two images without the high cost of cross-correlation.
Later an article by Eli Peli, Reed Augliere, and George Timberlake,
`Feature-Based Registration of Retinal Images', "IEEE Transactions on
Medical Imaging", Sept. 1987, mentions several improvements on the
algorithm making it considerably more robust yet keeping the almost
100 to 1 performance improvement over cross-correlation. I started to
implement the algorithm as described and ran into several questions
that were unclear to me from just reading the article. Does anyone
know of further articles describing the same technique ? Is there code
available that I could look at to answer some of the implementation
issues ?

Thank you.

Subject: Survey of Signal Based Learning

I would like to do a Survey on what I will call here 'Signal Based Learning'.

'Signal Based Learning' shall refer to that subset of learning methods
and systems which incorporate signal processing and automatically learn
symbolic structures from signals. Typical examples for such signals 
should be image signals or speech signals. 

The learned symbolic structures should be complex and prove useful for
realistic signal understanding tasks.

I would be grateful for any pointers to projects, systems, papers, methods,
etc. on the above characterized field. When I have completed the survey I
will repost it and send it to everyone who is interested.

a paper entitled: "Incremental Recognition of Pedestrians from Image

Is there anybody out there with information about object-oriented
frameworks for implementing machine vision systems.

I have been developing a framework of standard objects using KAPPA
as a tool, and would be grateful to hear from anyone who is applying
OO techniques to the machine vision domain.
Thanks,

                            Abstract

Determining the motion of a camera from its image sequences has so far
proved very difficult, and no practical algorithms have been found for
freely moving cameras. This novel algorithm is based on motion
parallax, but uses sparse visual motion estimates to extract the
direction of translation of the camera directly, after which
determination of the camera rotation and the depths of the image
features follows easily. This method can also detect and reject
independent motion, and provide a measure of the uncertainty of its
estimates.
