Libmv: Initial commit of unfinished AutoTrack API
This starts the creating the new AutoTrack API. The new API will make it possible for libmv to do full autotracking, including predictive tracking and also support multiple motion models (3D planes etc). The first goal (not in this patch) is to convert Blender to use the new API without adding any new functionality. This API currently contanins: - Frame accessor to access frames which are stored in Blender side. - New Tracks implementation - New Reconstruction implementation Currently this API only tested on doing the same frame-to-frame tracking as the old API allowed to do. But it also supports now predictive tracking which is based on the Kalman filter.

+ implement backward prediction
+
+ The title actually says it all, just extend current implementation
+ of PredictMarkerPosition() to cases when tracking happens in the reverse
+ order (from the end frame to start).
+
+ it's still doesn't solve all the ambiguity happening in the function
+ in cases when one tracks the feature and then re-tracks it in order
+ to refine the sliding. This is considered a separate TODO for now and
+ will likely be solved by passing tracking direction to the prediction
+ function.

+
+ Fix search area sliding issue
+
+ The only way to do this is to store search region in floats
+ and round when we need to sample it. Otherwise you'll always
+ have sliding effect caused by rounding the issues, especially
+ when doing incremental offset (thing which happens in the
+ prediction code).
+
+ Pretty much straightforward change apart from stuff to be kept
+ in mind: offset calculation int should happen relative to the
+ rounded search region. This is because tracker works in the space
+ of the search window image which get's rounded on the frame access,
+
+ This makes API a bit creepy because frame accessor uses the same
+ Region struct as the search window in Marker and ideally we would
+ need to have either IntRegion or Region<int> in order to make
+ Libmv fully track on what's getting rounded and when.

- Improvements to weighted tracks behavior
-
- First thing changed by this commit is making it so
- Euclidean intersection takes track weight into account
- when solving minimization problem. This behaves the
- same exact way as it is for BA step.
-
- Second thing is related on how average reprojection error
- is being calculated. It didn't take track weight into
- account which could confuse users. Now average reprojection
- error will give the same result as intersection/BA uses
- during minimization which gives much more predictable
- behavior.

- Eagerly attempt to refine a track before doing a brute search
-
- Before the refinement phase of tracking, a brute force SAD search
- is run across the search area. This works well but is slow;
- especially if the guess for the track's location is accurate.
-
- This patch runs a refinement phase before running a brute force
- search, hoping that the guessed position (in x2, y2) is close to
- the best answer. If it is, then no brute search is done. If it is
- not, then a normal brute force search followed by refinement is
- done.
-
- In some cases this may produce worse tracks than before; the
- regressions will need investigation. The predictive motion model
- (to be implemented) will reduce the probability of that happening.

-
- In the future we might want to switch resection to PPnP algorithm,
- which could also might be a nice alternative to fallback option.

-
- Use explicit declaration of int types sign
-
- Mainly needs to make blender happy with this custom
- header which used to run into conflict with other int
- types headers.
-
- Wouldn't harm being more explicit here anyway.

- Implement refinement of estimated homography/fundamental matrices
-
- It was only possible to perform algebraic estimation, which didn't
- give so much accurate results.
-
- Implemented a way to perform algebraic estimation followed with
- refinement step using Ceres minimizer.
-
- The code was actually mostly already there since keyframe selection
- patch. Made such estimation a generic function in multiview/ and
- hanged API for estimation in order to pass all additional options via
- an options structure (the same way as it's done fr Ceres).
-
- Most of the options are straight-forward to understand,but some
- deserves more description here:
-
- * expected_average_symmetric_distance is used as an early output check
- and as soon as average symmetric error goes below this threshold
- refining finishes.
-
- This distance is measured in the same units as input points are.
-
- It is arguable whether we need callback for this or not, but seems
- Ceres doesn't have some kind of absolute threshold for function value
- and function_tolerance behaves different from logic behind expected
- symmetric error.
-
- * There' an option to normalize correspondences before estimating the
- homography in order to increase estimation stability. See

- Add Procrustes PNP ("PPnP") resection algorithm to libmv
-
- This adds a new Euclidean resection method, used to create the
- initial reconstruction in the motion tracker, to libmv. The method
- is based on the Procrustes PNP algorithm (aka "PPnP"). Currently
- the algorithm is not connected with the motion tracker, but it
- will be eventually since it supports initialization.
-
- Having an initial guess when doing resection is important for
- ambiguous cases where potentially the user could offer extra
- guidance to the solver, in the form of "this point is in front of
- that point".

- Original patch by Keir Mierle made to Blender repository.
