Affinity-based distributed algorithm for 3D reconstruction in large scale Visual Sensor Networks

In recent years, Visual Sensor Networks have emerged as an interesting category of distributed sensor-actor systems to retrieve data from the observed scene and produce information. Indeed, the request for accurate 3D scene reconstruction in several applications is leading to the development of very large systems and more specifically to large scale motion capture systems. When dealing with such huge amount of data from a large number of cameras it becomes very hard to make real time reconstruction on a single machine.
