What is Random Sample Consensus
Random sample consensus, also known as RANSAC, is an iterative method that is used to estimate the parameters of a mathematical model based on a collection of observed data that includes outliers. This method is used in situations where the outliers are permitted to have no impact on the values of the estimates. The conclusion is that it is also possible to view it as a tool for detecting outliers. An algorithm is considered to be non-deterministic if it is able to generate a suitable result only with a certain probability, and this likelihood increases as the number of iterations that are permitted via the method increases. In 1981, Fischler and Bolles, who were working at SRI International, were the ones who initially published the algorithm. In order to solve the Location Determination Problem (LDP), which is a problem in which the objective is to find the points in space that project onto an image and then convert those points into a set of landmarks with known positions, they utilized RANSAC.
