TLDR
A knowledge-guided system for the analysis of range data about three-dimensional scenes with planar and/or curved objects is presented and a "junction dictionary" is constructed to represent the general knowledge about the physical nature of the three- dimensional objects world.About:

Segmentation through variable-order surface fitting
Paul J. Besl,Ramesh Jain +1 more
TL;DR: A piecewise-smooth surface model for image data that possesses surface coherence properties is used to develop an algorithm that simultaneously segments a large class of images into regions of arbitrary shape and approximates image data with bivariate functions so that it is possible to compute a complete, noiseless image reconstruction based on the extracted functions and regions.

Three-dimensional object recognition
Paul J. Besl,Ramesh Jain +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a precise definition of the 3D object recognition problem is proposed, and basic concepts associated with this problem are discussed, and a review of relevant literature is provided.
Book
Three-Dimensional Computer Vision
TL;DR: A complete production system is proposed which makes use of unified geometric models to be shared by CAD, CAM, and visual processing, and can solve a second difficulty in applying 3-dimensional computer vision to industry, namely the problem of the extensive programming effort.

Model-based recognition in robot vision
Roland T. Chin,Charles R. Dyer +1 more
TL;DR: This paper presents a comparative study and survey of model-based object-recognition algorithms for robot vision, and an evaluation and comparison of existing industrial part- recognition systems and algorithms is given, providing insights for progress toward future robot vision systems.

Invariant surface characteristics for 3D object recognition in range images
Paul J. Besl,Ramesh Jain +1 more
TL;DR: Experimental results for real and synthetic range images show the properties, usefulness, and importance of differential-geometric surface characteristics.

Digital Picture Processing
Azriel Rosenfeld,Avinash C. Kak +1 more
TL;DR: The rapid rate at which the field of digital picture processing has grown in the past five years had necessitated extensive revisions and the introduction of topics not found in the original edition.
Understanding Line drawings of Scenes with Shadows
TL;DR: A detailed discussion of the standard approach to computer interpretation of line drawings as three-dimensional scenes as well as some alternative approaches to this approach are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
On seeing things
TL;DR: It is argued that at least two types of description of the pattern must be utilised if any significant pattern generalisation is to be achieved, and in general that all picture interpretation tasks involve descriptions in two domains.

Computer description of curved objects
Gerald J. Agin,Thomas O. Binford +1 more
TL;DR: A ranging system, consisting of a laser, computer-controlled optical deflection assembly, and TV camera, obtains three-dimensional images of curved solid objects, which are segmented into parts by grouping parallel traces obtained from the ranging system.

The measurement and use of registered reflectance and range data in scene analysis
D. Nitzan,A.E. Brain,R.O. Duda +2 more
TL;DR: The theory and use of a laser sensor designed to provide arrays of registered intensity and range data for three-dimensional scene analysis are described and procedures for finding outlines of occluding objects, obtaining normal views of obliquely sensed planar surfaces, and extracting the images of horizontal surface regions from a scene are presented.
