Visualizations and simulations in an urban environment need 3D digital maps rather than traditional 2D maps, and constructing 3D maps from multiple data sources has become a promi...
The paper proposes a reliable method for estimating quadric surfaces from 3D range data in the framework of object recognition and localization or object modelling. Instead of est...

— We present a method for reconstructing 3D models of tree branch structure from laser range data. Our approach is probabilistic, and uses a generative model of a tree to guide a...
— Preserving cultural heritage and historic sites is an important problem. These sites are subject to erosion, vandalism, and as long-lived artifacts, they have gone through many...
