In the course of developing a system for fitting smooth curves to camera input we have developed several direct (i.e. noniterative) methods for fitting a shape (line, circle, conic...
ion and abstraction. By the end of the 20th century, technology had advanced to the point where computerized methods had revolutionized surveying and mapmaking practices. Now, the ...
In this paper we present a new method for alignment of 3D models. This approach is based on symmetry properties, and uses the fact that the principal components analysis (PCA) hav...
The robust alignment of images and scenes seen from widely different viewpoints is an important challenge for camera and scene reconstruction. This paper introduces a novel class ...

In this study, we address the problem of 3-D dense metric reconstruction and registration from multiple images, given that the observed surface is nearly planar. This is difficult...
