Description
Make pixel thresholds a function of the image size, to avoid treating 480p and 1296p images differently.
A good reference is http://phototour.cs.washington.edu/ModelingTheWorld_ijcv07.pdf:
We set the RANSAC outlier threshold to be 0.6% of the maximum image dimension, i.e., 0.006 max(image width,image height) (about six pixels for a 1024×768 image).
COLMAP users also complain about how in COLMAP this is hard-coded in their issue #1278.
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by locating the RANSAC outlier-threshold implementation and its tests; the issue does not name files or entry points. Compare the current fixed threshold with 0.006 × max(image width, image height), then verify behavior across 480p and 1296p images.
