Globally Optimal Structure and Motion Estimation

In this line of work, we persent globally optimal solutions to several important problems in multiview geometry. Structure from motion problems are inherently non-convex and these works rely on efficient construction of relaxations using developments in convex optimization and algebraic geometry.
