In this paper, a genetic algorithm (GA)-based approach to estimate the fundamental matrix is presented. The aim of the proposed GA-based algorithm is to reduce the effect of noise and outliers in the corresponding points which affect the accuracy of the estimated fundamental matrix. Although in the proposed approach the GA is allowed to select the significant among all detected points, on the average half of the matched points have been determined to give optimum estimation of the fundamental matrix. Experiments with synthetic and real data show that the proposed approach is accurate especially in the presence of a high percentage of outliers. The proposed GA can always obtain good results in both high and low detailed images. Even for low detailed images which have a small number of matched points available to estimate the fundamental matrix, the proposed GA outperformed other methods.

We present a hybrid neural network architecture that supports the estimation of binocular disparity in a cyclopean, head-centric coordinate system without explicitly establishing retinal correspondences. Instead the responses of binocular energy neurons are gain-modulated by oculomotor signals. The network can handle the full six degrees of freedom of binocular gaze and operates directly on image pairs of possibly varying contrast. Furthermore, we show that in the absence of an oculomotor signal the same architecture is capable of estimating the epipolar geometry directly from the population response. The increased complexity of the scenarios considered in this work provides an important step towards the application of computational models centered on gain modulation mechanisms in real-world robotic applications. The proposed network is shown to outperform a standard computer vision technique on a disparity estimation task involving real-world stereo images.
