The name // VisibilityBasedPreconditioner comes from the fact that the sparsity // structure of the preconditioner matrix is determined by analyzing // the visibility structure of the scene, i.e. which cameras see which // points. // // The key idea of visibility based preconditioning is to identify // cameras that we expect have strong interactions, and then using the // entries in the Schur complement matrix corresponding to these // camera pairs as an approximation to the full Schur complement. // // CLUSTER_JACOBI identifies these camera pairs by clustering cameras, // and considering all non-zero camera pairs within each cluster. The // clustering in the current implementation is done using the // Canonical Views algorithm of Simon et al. (see // canonical_views_clustering.h). For the purposes of clustering, the // similarity or the degree of interaction between a pair of cameras // is measured by counting the number of points visible in both the // cameras. Thus the name VisibilityBasedPreconditioner. Further, if we // were to permute the parameter blocks such that all the cameras in // the same cluster occur contiguously, the preconditioner matrix will // be a block diagonal matrix with blocks corresponding to the // clusters. Thus in analogy with the Jacobi preconditioner we refer // to this as the CLUSTER_JACOBI preconditioner. // // CLUSTER_TRIDIAGONAL adds more mass to the CLUSTER_JACOBI // preconditioner by considering the interaction between clusters and // identifying strong interactions between cluster pairs. This is done // by constructing a weighted graph on the clusters, with the weight // on the edges connecting two clusters proportional to the number of // 3D points visible to cameras in both the clusters. A degree-2 // maximum spanning forest is identified in this graph and the camera // pairs contained in the edges of this forest are added to the // preconditioner. The detailed reasoning for this construction is // explained in the paper mentioned above. // // Degree-2 spanning trees and forests have the property that they // correspond to tri-diagonal matrices. Thus there exist a permutation // of the camera blocks under which the CLUSTER_TRIDIAGONAL // preconditioner matrix is a block tridiagonal matrix, and thus the // name for the preconditioner. // // Thread Safety: This class is NOT thread safe. // // Example usage: // // LinearSolver::Options options; // options.preconditioner_type = CLUSTER_JACOBI; // options.elimination_groups.push_back(num_points); // options.elimination_groups.push_back(num_cameras); // VisibilityBasedPreconditioner preconditioner( // *A.block_structure(), options); // preconditioner.Update(A, NULL); // preconditioner.RightMultiply(x, y); // #ifndef CERES_NO_SUITESPARSE class VisibilityBasedPreconditioner : public BlockSparseMatrixPreconditioner { public: // Initialize the symbolic structure of the preconditioner. bs is // the block structure of the linear system to be solved.
