Abstract
In this paper we present an algorithm for segmentation of range images using the digitisable operations of morphology. The range image is segmented into planar primitives based on their orientations. The concept of Neighborhood Plane Sets (NPS) introduced by Mukherjee et al [10] has been used. The NPS proposed in [ 10] has been augmented by considering four more orientations. A straightforward technique for the extraction of NPS has been proposed. NPS extraction is followed by a smoothing step. The final segments are extracted using a particle marking scheme.

An SIMD algorithm for range image segmentation

TL;DR: A new parallel algorithm for 3D surface segmentation wherein the problem ofsurface segmentation is modelled as a quantization problem, which suitably avoids the computations of the differential properties of the surfaces or the surface fitting expressions which are used in most of the other existing techniques.

Segmentation through variable-order surface fitting

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.
