Parametric geons: a discrete set of shapes with parameterized attributes
نویسندگان
چکیده
We propose parametric geons as a volumetric description of object components for qualitative object recognition. Parametric geons are seven qualitative shape types deened by parameterized equations which control the size and degree of tapering and bending. The models provide global shape constraints which make model recovery procedures robust against noise and minor variations in object shape. The surface characteristics of parametric geons are discussed. The properties of parametric geons and conventional geon models are compared. Experiments tting para-metric geons to multiview data using stochastic optimization were performed. Results show that unique descriptions of single-part objects with minor shape variations can be obtained with the parametric geon models.

This paper presents a new approach to 3D shape representation { approximating the shapes of object parts by a set of prescribed volumetric models using single-and multi-view range data. We deene a new set of volumetric part models , called parametric geons. These are seven qualitative shapes, each of which is formulated by a restricted globally-deformed superellipsoid. Model recovery is perform...

متن کاملConstruction and Retrieval of a Library of Customised 3D Shapes Using Fuzzy Specifications
Some applications in computer-aided design and computer vision areas require rough or inexact object models. We propose a method for fuzzy shape specifications based on parametric geons and fuzzy set theory. These fuzzy specifications are used to create customised 3D shapes to be stored in a library for later use. The shapes can be retrieved using fuzzy global generic shape descriptors and fuzz...

متن کاملSignal-to-symbol Mapping for Laser Rangefinders
A new approach for computing qualitative part-based descriptions of 3D objects is presented. The object descriptions are obtained in two steps: Object segmenta-tion into parts and part model identiication. Beginning with single-or multi-view range data of a 3D object, we simulate the charge density distribution over an object's surface which has been tessellated by a triangular mesh. We detect ...
