This paper presents a comparative study and survey of model-based object-recognition algorithms for robot vision. The goal of these algorithms is to recognize the identity, position, and orientation of randomly oriented industrial parts. In one form this is commonly referred to as the "bin-picking" problem, in which the parts to be recognized are presented in a jumbled bin. The paper is organized according to 2-D, 2½-D, and 3-D object representations, which are used as the basis for the recognition algorithms. Three central issues common to each category, namely, feature extraction, modeling, and matching, are examined in detail. An evaluation and comparison of existing industrial part-recognition systems and algorithms is given, providing insights for progress toward future robot vision systems.read more

Curve-Centric Volume Reformation for Comparative Visualization
TL;DR: It is shown that existing data visualizations of arc-length parameterized data can be enhanced by using the techniques, in addition to creating a new view and perspective on volumetric data around curves, which can be brought into plotting environments that allow precise readouts.

Characterizing three-dimensional surface structures from visual images
TL;DR: It is proposed that a structured-light sensing configuration where a grid pattern is projected to encode the imaged surfaces for analysis be adopted and the principal curvatures and their directions at the stripe junction under consideration are recovered using Euler's theorem.

Generalizing the hough transform to detect arbitrary shapes
TL;DR: It is shown how the boundaries of an arbitrary non-analytic shape can be used to construct a mapping between image space and Hough transform space, which makes the generalized Houghtransform a kind of universal transform which can beused to find arbitrarily complex shapes.

Robot Vision
TL;DR: Robot Vision as discussed by the authors is a broad overview of the field of computer vision, using a consistent notation based on a detailed understanding of the image formation process, which can provide a useful and current reference for professionals working in the fields of machine vision, image processing, and pattern recognition.

Fourier Descriptors for Plane Closed Curves
Charles T. Zahn,Ralph Roskies +1 more
TL;DR: It is established that the Fourier series expansion is optimal and unique with respect to obtaining coefficients insensitive to starting point and the amplitudes are pure form invariants as well as are certain simple functions of phase angles.
