Figure 2: Images downloaded form the the <strong>Internet</strong> by searching for “Statue of Liberty”,<br />
which do not represent the Statue of Liberty in New York.<br />
for salient feature points to neighboring views. In the case of video these<br />
correspondences are determined through KLT-tracking on the GPU<br />
with simultaneous estimation of the camera gain (Section 4.1.1). For<br />
<strong>Internet</strong> photo collections our system first establishes a spatial neighborhood<br />
relationship for each image through a clustering of single image<br />
descriptors, which effectively clusters close viewpoints. The feature<br />
points used are the SIFT features [58] due to their enhanced invariance<br />
to larger viewpoint changes (Section 4.1).<br />
• Camera pose/motion estimation <strong>from</strong> local correspondences is robustly<br />
performed through an efficient RANSAC technique called ARRSAC<br />
(Section 4.1.2). It determines the inlier correspondences <strong>and</strong> the camera<br />
position with respect to the previous image <strong>and</strong> the known model.<br />
