Thank you very much for the solutions. I am thinking of following your path i.e. my goal is to study Multiple View Geometry for Computer Vision, but first I was thinking to go through the Introduction to Projective Geometry. I was wondering how much time did it take you to finish the books? Did you read them in parallel or fist the Introduction to Projective Geometry?

Hi Loak. Great to hear that you are interested in studying MVG! Personally, it took me around 3 to 4 months of intensive studying to get through the first part (chapters 1 - 5) of Introduction to Projective Geometry. I would read the material and attempt all the exercises. While I would not recommend this approach, learning projective geometry was certainly very helpful in quickly picking up vision and graphics concepts.

My recommendation would be to read chapters 1, 2, 4 and part of chapter 5 thoroughly and just skim through the exercises. I found the exercises in chapters 4 and 5 to be more theoretically inclined than of practical use in vision. Chapter 1 and its exercises are great in terms of gaining an intuition for how perspective projection works though. I would also suggest skipping the parts in chapter 5 about collineations of types I, II, III, IV, V and VI.

Another thing I recommend is that you get familiar with linear algebra and probability theory before attempting MVG.

Finally, I found that studying different subjects in parallel did not work well for me so I focused on mastering one subject at a time.

I hope you enjoy the journey!
