We propose a framework for operator guidance during the image acquisition process for reliable multi-view stereo reconstruction. Goal is to achieve full coverage of the object and sufficient overlap. Multi-view stereo is a commonly used method to reconstruct both camera trajectory and 3D object shape. After determining an initial solution, a globally optimal reconstruction is usually obtained b...

This work examines the problem of searching for schedulable real-time control policies for resource-limited agents acting in dynamic environments. The dynamic properties of the environment and resource limitations of the agent render the problem of solving for an optimal policy infeasible. We therefore limit our search to a satisficing, rather than an optimal policy. We view the policy search a...

Recent advances in variational and optimization methods applied to increasingly complex numerical weather prediction models with larger numbers of degrees of freedom mandate to take a perspective view of past and recent developments in this field, and present a view of the state of art in the field. Variational methods attempt to achieve a best fit between data and model subject to some ‘a prio...

Abstract Classical propositional logic plays a prominent role in industrial applications, and yet the complexity of this is presumed to be non-feasible. Tractable systems such as depth-bounded boolean logics approximate classical can seen model for resource-bounded agents whose reasoning style nonetheless classical. In paper we first study hierarchy tractable that not defined by depth. Then ext...

We consider the problem of L2-optimal triangulation from three separate views. Triangulation is an important part of numerous computer vision systems. Under gaussian noise, minimizing the L2 norm of the reprojection error gives a statistically optimal estimate. This has been solved for two views. However, for three or more views, it is not clear how this should be done. A previously proposed, b...
