چکیده

This paper addresses the problem of recovering the 3D shape of a surface of revolution from multiple uncalibrated perspective views. In previous work, we have exploited the invariant properties of the surface of revolution and its silhouette to recover the contour generator and hence the meridian of the surface of revolution from a single uncalibrated view. However, there exists one degree of freedom in the reconstruction which corresponds to the unknown orientation of the revolution axis of the surface of revolution. In this paper, such an ambiguity is removed by estimating the horizon, again, using the image invariants associated with the surface of revolution. A bundle-adjustment approach is then proposed to provide an optimal estimate of the meridian when multiple uncalibrated views of the same surface of revolution are available. Experimental results on real images are presented, which demonstrate the feasibility of the approach.

Building Reconstruction from N Uncalibrated Views

We present a supervised approach to recover 3D models of buildings from multiple uncalibrated views. With this method the user matches 3D vertices in the images and defines the 3D model of the building with the help of elementary and intuitive geometric constraints. At the same time, a graph describing relationships between vertices is built. Then, unknown parameters of this graph are estimated...

Quadratic Surface Reconstruction from Multiple Views Using SQP

We propose using SQP (Sequential Quadratic Programming) to directly recover 3D quadratic surface parameters from multiple views. A surface equation is used as a constraint. In addition to the sum of squared reprojection errors defined in the traditional bundle adjustment, a Lagrangian term is added to force recovered points to satisfy the constraint. The minimization is realized by SQP. Our alg...

Reconstruction of Surfaces of Revolution from Single Uncalibrated Views

This paper addresses the problem of recovering the 3D shape of a surface of revolution from a single uncalibrated perspective view. The algorithm introduced here makes use of the invariant properties of a surface of revolution and its silhouette to locate the image of the revolution axis, and to calibrate the focal length of the camera. The image is then normalized and rectified such that the r...
