Smoothed Local Generalized Cones: An Axial Representation of 3D Shapes

Abstract

The recovery of viewpoint-independent descriptions of 3D shapes from two-and-one-half dimensional images. A novel 3D shape representation called the smoothed local generalized cones (SLGCs) is proposed. This representation is suitable for recovery of the axis, because the local constraint that characterizes a data set corresponding to the same axis point, namely, the local generalized cone (LGC), is explicitly defined. The extracted axis can be used as a basis for determining a natural parameterization of the object surface. Using this parameterization, the deformable surface fitting problem results in a linear least-squares problem, so stable volumetric recovery is possible. Recovery experiments involving real 3D range images are reported.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>
