20 Least squares: Robustess to ose Least squares ft to the red pots:

21 Least squares: Robustess to ose Least squares ft wth a outler: Problem: squared error heavl pealzes outlers

22 Robust estmators Geeral approach: mmze r, θ resdual of th pot w.r.t. model parameters θ ρ robust fucto wth scale parameter σ r, ; The robust fucto ρ behaves lke squared dstace for small values of the resdual u but saturates for larger values of u

23 Choosg the scale: Just rght The effect of the outler s elmated

24 Choosg the scale: Too small The error value s almost the same for ever pot ad the ft s ver poor

25 Choosg the scale: Too large Behaves much the same as least squares

26 Robust estmato: Notes Robust fttg s a olear optmzato problem that must be solved teratvel Least squares soluto ca be used for talzato Adaptve choce of scale: magc umber tmes meda resdual

49 RANSAC pros ad cos Pros Smple ad geeral Applcable to ma dfferet problems Ofte works well practce Cos Lots of parameters to tue Ca t alwas get a good talzato of the model based o the mmum umber of samples Sometmes too ma teratos are requred Ca fal for etremel low ler ratos We ca ofte do better tha brute-force samplg

50 Problem ; cost fucto Eamples of other cost fuctos Least Meda Squares;.e. take the sample that mmzed the meda of the resduals. MLESAC/MLESAC use the posteror or lkelhood of the data. MINPRAN Stewart, makes assumptos about radomess of data

51 LMS Repeat M tmes: Sample mmal umber of matches to estmate two vew relato. Calculate error of all data. Choose relato to mmze meda of errors.

52 Pros ad Cos LMS PRO CON Do ot eed a threshold for lers. Caot work for more tha 50% outlers. Problems f a lot of data belogs to a submafold e.g. domate plae the mage

53 Co: LMS, subspace problem Meda error s same for two solutos.

54 Co: LMS, subspace problem No good soluto f the umber of outlers >50%

55 Pros LMS Oe major advatage of LMS s that t ca eld a robust estmate of the varace of the errors. But care should be take to use the rght formula, as ths depeds o the dstrbuto of the errors, ad degrees of freedom the errors codmeso.

56 Robust Mamum Lkelhood Estmato Radom Samplg ca optmze a fucto: Better, robust cost fucto, MLESAC

57 Error fucto Red-mture, gree-uform, blue-gaussa.

58 MAPSAC/MLESAC Ths soluto

59 MLESAC/MLESAC Is better tha ths soluto

60 MLESAC Add pror to get to MAP soluto Iterestg thg s that wth MLESAC oe could sample less tha the mmal umber of pots to make a estmate usg pror as etra formato. A posteror ca be optmzed; radom samplg good for matchg AND FUNCTION OPTIMIZATION! e.g. MLESAC s a cheap wa to optmze objectve fuctos regardless of outlers or ot.

61 MLESAC Oce the beefts of MLESAC are see there s o reaso to cotue to use RANSAC; ma stuatos the mprovemet the soluto ca be marked Especall f wat to use pror formato e.g. the F matr chagg smoothl over tme.
