A simple example is fitting a line in two dimensions to a set of observations. Assuming that this set contains both inliers, i.e., … See more

The RANSAC algorithm is a learning technique to estimate parameters of a model by random sampling of observed data. Given a dataset whose data elements contain both inliers and outliers, RANSAC uses the vo… See more

The generic RANSAC algorithm works as the following pseudocode: See more

A Python implementation mirroring the pseudocode. This also defines a LinearRegressor based on least squares, applies RANSAC to a 2D regression problem, and visualizes the outcome: See more

The threshold value to determine when a data point fits a model (t), and the number of inliers (data points fitted to the model within t) required to assert that the model fits well to data (d) are determined based on specific … See more

An advantage of RANSAC is its ability to do robust estimation of the model parameters, i.e., it can estimate the parameters with a high degree of accuracy even when a significant number of outliers are present in the data se… See more

The RANSAC algorithm is often used in computer vision, e.g., to simultaneously solve the correspondence problem and estimate the fundamental matrix related to a pair of stereo cameras; see also: Structure from motion… See more
