This repository is moved to https://github.com/ducha-aiki/pydegensac

Due to name conflict with pypi package pyransac. Please, download/install https://github.com/ducha-aiki/pydegensac, which is now available via pip wheels.

pyransac

This repository contains an Python wrapper of RANSAC for homography and fundamental matrix estimation from sparse correspondences. It implements LO-RANSAC and DEGENSAC.

Performance

Vanilla pyransac implementation is marginally better than OpenCV one and with degeneracy-check enabled (DEGENSAC) it is the state of the art, according to the recent study Yin et.al."Image Matching across Wide Baselines: From Paper to Practice", 2020.

Installation

To build and install pyransac, clone or download this repository and then, from within the repository, run:

python3 ./setup.py install

or

pip3 install .

Building hints from Tomasz Malisiewicz

1. Compiling pyransac without a system-wide install.

python3 ./setup.py build

2. Compiling on Mac OS X computer Use GCC instead of Clang. The most recent version on my machine (installed via brew) is gcc-8. Try this:

CC=gcc-8 python3 ./setup.py build

3. Compiling on Ubuntu 18.04 You need LAPACK and a few other libraries and I always forget those specific package names. Take a look at my pyransac Dockerfile to see the exact packages you need to apt install on an Ubuntu 18.04 system (https://github.com/quantombone/pyransac-dockerfile/blob/master/Dockerfile)

FROM ubuntu:18.04

update system

RUN apt-get clean
RUN apt-get update
RUN apt-get install -qy \
    git python3 python3-setuptools python3-dev
RUN apt-get install -y cmake libblas-dev liblapack-dev gfortran
RUN apt-get install -y g++ gcc

download and build pyransac

RUN git clone https://github.com/ducha-aiki/pyransac.git
WORKDIR pyransac
RUN python3 ./setup.py build

copy built assets into target directory (which will be a -v volume)

CMD cp -R /pyransac/build/lib.linux-x86_64-3.6/pyransac /target_directory

Example of usage

import pyransac
H, mask = pyransac.findHomography(src_pts, dst_pts, 3.0)
F, mask = pyransac.findFundamentalMatrix(src_pts, dst_pts, 3.0)

Requirements

• Python 3
