  2. Image rectification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_rectification

    If the images to be rectified are taken from camera pairs without geometric distortion, this calculation can easily be made with a linear transformation.X & Y rotation puts the images on the same plane, scaling makes the image frames be the same size and Z rotation & skew adjustments make the image pixel rows directly line up [citation needed].

  3. Oblique projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oblique_projection

    The foreshortening factor (1/2 in this example) is inversely proportional to the tangent of the angle (63.43° in this example) between the projection plane (colored brown) and the projection lines (dotted). Front view of the same. Oblique projection is a type of parallel projection: it projects an image by intersecting parallel rays (projectors)

  4. Keystone effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keystone_effect

    The keystone effect is the apparent distortion of an image caused by projecting it onto an angled surface. It is the distortion of the image dimensions, such as making a square look like a trapezoid, the shape of an architectural keystone, hence the name of the feature.

  5. Perspective distortion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perspective_distortion

    Simulation showing how adjusting the angle of view of a camera, while varying the camera's distance and keeping the object in frame, results in vastly differing images. At narrow angles and long distances, light rays are nearly parallel, resulting in a "flattened" image. At wide angles and short distances, objects appear foreshortened or distorted.

  6. Skewness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skewness

    For instance, a mixed distribution consisting of very thin Gaussians centred at −99, 0.5, and 2 with weights 0.01, 0.66, and 0.33 has a skewness of about −9.77, but in a sample of 3 has an expected value of about 0.32, since usually all three samples are in the positive-valued part of the distribution, which is skewed the other way.

  7. Skew arch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skew_arch

    Colorado Street Bridge, an example of a false skew arch. The strength of a regular arch (also known as a "square" or "right" arch) comes from the fact that the mass of the structure and its superincumbent load cause lines of force that are carried by the stones into the ground and the abutments without producing any tendency for the stones to slide with respect to one another.

  8. Infinitesimal rotation matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infinitesimal_rotation_matrix

    An infinitesimal rotation matrix or differential rotation matrix is a matrix representing an infinitely small rotation.. While a rotation matrix is an orthogonal matrix = representing an element of () (the special orthogonal group), the differential of a rotation is a skew-symmetric matrix = in the tangent space (the special orthogonal Lie algebra), which is not itself a rotation matrix.

  9. Shear mapping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shear_mapping

    Any point above the x-axis is displaced to the right (increasing x) if m > 0, and to the left if m < 0. Points below the x -axis move in the opposite direction, while points on the axis stay fixed. Straight lines parallel to the x -axis remain where they are, while all other lines are turned (by various angles) about the point where they cross ...
