A how-to-pull guide

Clone the repository using the following code

git clone --recursive https://github.com/jhh37/projective-ba

Code

Our current code is very slow. We aim to implement our methods using Ceres-solver to increase the speed of the algorithms and allow multithreading.

A how-to-run demo

You may run the script [ run_demo.m ] inside the [ Code ] folder.

Running experiments

Before starting, there are some issues you need to watch out for:

1. Prior to running any experiment, you must have run [ Code/setup.m ], which adds relevant paths and compile required mex files.
2. All commands must run in the [ Code ] directory.
