Reconstruction of Canal Surfaces from Single Images Under Exact Perspective
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper addresses the reconstruction of canal surfaces from single images. A canal surface is obtained as the envelope of a family of spheres of constant radius, whose center is swept along a space curve, called axis. Previous studies either used approximate relationships (quasi-invariants), or they addressed the recognition based on a geometric model. In this paper we show that, under broad conditions, canal surfaces can be reconstructed from single images under exact perspective. In particular, canal surfaces with planar axis can even be reconstructed from a single fully-uncalibrated image. An automatic reconstruction method has been implemented. Simulations and experimental results on real images are also presented.

Ball trajectory reconstruction from a single long-exposure perspective image
This paper deals with the reconstruction of the 3D trajectory of a moving ball from a single calibrated photograph, shot by a still perspective camera, with an exposure time long enough to encompass the ball’s movement. Our work differs from previous approaches since we do not use image sequences, stereopsis, nor assumptions on a parabolic trajectory (therefore, we are also capable of reconstru...
متن کاملClass-Based Grouping in Perspective Images
In any object recognition system a major and primary task is to associate those image features, within an image of a complex scene, that arise from an individual object. The key idea here is that a geometric class deened in 3D induces relationships in the image which must hold between points on the image outline (the perspective projection of the object). The resulting image constraints enable ...

Introduction:Low-pass filters eliminate noise, and accordingly improve the quality of filtered back-projection (FBP) in the reconstruction of single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) images. This study aimed at selection of an optimum low-pass filter for FBP reconstruction of SPECT images of small structures. Material and Methods:Sp...
متن کامل3D Trajectory Assessment of an IVUS Transducer from Single-Plane Cineangiograms: a Phantom Study
The recovery of the 3D path of the transducer used during an Intravascular Ultrasound (IVUS) examination is of primary importance to assess the exact 3D shape of the vessel under study. Traditionally, the reconstruction is done simply by stacking the images during the pullback, or more recently using biplane angiography to recover the vessel curvature. In this paper, we apply the formulation of...
