Abstract: Egomotion estimation is a fundamental issue in structure from motion and autonomous navigation for mobile robots. Several camera motion estimation methods from a set of variable number of image correspondances have been proposed. Five-point methods represent the minimal number of required correspondences to estimate the essential matrix, raised special interest for their application in a hypothesize-and-test framework. This algorithm allows relative pose recovery at the expense of a much higher computational time when dealing with higher ratios of outliers. To solve this problem with a certain amount of speedup, we propose in this work, a CUDA-based solution for the essential matrix estimation performed using the Grobner basis version of 5-point algorithm, complemented with robust estimation. The description of the hardware-specific implementation considerations as well as the parallelization methods employed are given in detail. Performance analysis against existing CPU implementati on is also given, showing a speedup 4 times faster than the CPU for an outlier ratio e = 0.5, common for the essential matrix estimation from automatically computed point correspondences. More speedup was shown when dealing with higher outlier ratios. (More)
