Determinant of Jacobian of camera model
Consider a simple pinhole camera model as commonly used in computer vision:
$$
x_{\rm{pcs}} = f x_{\rm{ccs}} + p_x\\
y_{\rm{pcs}} = f y_{\rm{ccs}} + p_y
$$
where ccs represents the 3D camera ...

Computer Vison geometry: distance estimation of moving object from single fixed camera
I have a problem that I am still not sure if it's solvable. I have a system with a single fixed camera pointing to a fixed background (i.e., a wall). the distance between lens and background (at the ...

"Histogram Equalization" Problem
Here we deal with the problem of Histogram Equalization.
Let $\Omega$ be the set of all pixels in an image, but you can just treat it as some arbitrary set in this case.
Let $f: \Omega \rightarrow \{0,...

Are convex objects determined by their silhouettes?
Informally, the silhouette of a 3D shape is a viewpoint-dependent 2D projection of it. You might imagine looking at several silhouettes and attempting to construct the overall shape. My question is ...

finding the radius of a cylinder based on camera position
Not entirely sure this is the right forum, but I'll give it a go.
I have a cylinder that is projected onto a 2d plane (3d world with a virtual camera).
What I want to figure out is, given a point on ...
