This paper proposes an automated method to detect, group and rectify arbitrarily-arranged coplanar repeated elements via energy minimization. The proposed energy functional combines several features that model how planes with coplanar repeats are projected into images and captures global interactions between different coplanar repeat groups and scene planes. An inference framework based on a recent variant of $\alpha$-expansion is described and fast convergence is demonstrated. We compare the…

It is shown that CNN-based depths inferred from single RGB images are quite helpful, despite their flaws, and allow us to pre-warp images and rectify perspective distortions, to significantly enhance SIFT and BRISK features, enabling more good matches, even when cameras are looking at the same scene but in opposite directions.

The proposed method is simple to implement and without parameters; linear and thus supporting (algebraic) least squares solutions; and general, without restrictions on either the shape of the corresponding features or their mutual position.

The main algorithmic contribution is an extension of α-expansion that also optimizes “label costs” with well-characterized optimality bounds, which has a natural interpretation as minimizing description length (MDL) and sheds light on classical algorithms like K-means and expectation-maximization (EM).
