In this paper we present a novel view point independent range image segmentation and recognition approach. We generate a library of 3D models off-line and represent each model wit...
We present fast and accurate segmentation algorithms of range images of urban scenes. The utilization of these algorithms is essential as a pre-processing step for a variety of ta...
For designing aesthetic surfaces, such as the car bodies, it is very important to use aesthetic curves as characteristic lines. In such curves, the curvature should be monotonical...
Abstract. This paper concerns the exploration of a natural environment by a mobile robot equipped with both a video camera and a range sensor (stereo or laser range finder); we fo...

In some applications objects are known to have nonsmooth or “jagged” edges, which are not well approximated by smooth curves. We use subdivision curves as a simple but flexib...
