Apr 16, 2014 at 16:07 comment added Aaron Meyerowitz You might first consider the case that all the matrices are row vectors. Since the $M_j$ are known to us,we know the set of scalar values $r_{jk}x_i$ where $r_{jk}$ is row $k$ of $M_j$.
Apr 16, 2014 at 11:58 comment added Joseph O'Rourke For points in $\mathbb{R}^3$, a version of the problem is called "shape from shadows," and is heavily studied. E.g., "The Episolar Constraint: Monocular Shape from Shadow Correspondence" PDF download link
Apr 16, 2014 at 10:58 comment added Camilo Sarmiento Your question is addressed (for the complex case) in the paper arxiv.org/abs/1312.0158 by Conca, Edidin, Hering and Vinzant, and in the references it cites. Another keyword is "multiview- or epipolar geometry"

Apr 16, 2014 at 10:24 comment added user45183 Hello Tommi Brander: concerning your first question: for a fixed $j$, given a point $y$, you dont know whether it is generated by $M_j x_1$ or $M_j x_{100}$ If you had this orderning, then you could trivially solve the problem for each point $x_i$ separately. Hence the nessecary condition of trivial intersection of kernels. Concerning your second question: J is not apriori known and is part of the question. What I am looking for are conditions on $J$ and the set of projection matrices, such that the reconstruction is unique.
Apr 16, 2014 at 10:01 comment added Tommi Some more questions: Is J known a priori? Can you select the matrices $M_j$ or are they arbitrary?

Apr 16, 2014 at 9:22 comment added Tommi You write that the data includes no knowledge of ordering. What do you mean by this? Does it mean that we do not know if some y in the data is given as $y =M_1 x_4$ or $y=M_2 x_1$, for example?
