In this paper, we propose a novel method for inferring image correspondences on the pair of synchronized image sequences. In the proposed method, after tracking the feature points in each image sequence over several frames, we solve the image corresponding problem from two types of geometrical constraints: (1) the motion subspace obtained from the tracked feature points of a target sequence, and (2) the epipolar constraints between the two cameras. Dissimilarly to the conventional correspondence estimation based on image matching using pixel values, the proposed approach enables us to obtain the correspondences even though the feature points, that can be seen from one camera view, but can not be seen (occluded or outside of the view) from the other camera. The validity of our method is demonstrated through the experiments using synthetic and real images.
