Abstract

We compare algorithms for fundamental matrix computation, which we classify into “a posteriori correction”, “internal access”, and “external access”. Doing experimental comparison, we show that the 7-parameter Levenberg-Marquardt (LM) search and the extended FNS (EFNS) exhibit the best performance and that additional bundle adjustment does not increase the accuracy to any noticeable degree.
