Abstract. We consider the problem of simultaneously registering several images to a 3D model. We propose a global approach based on mutual information that extends previous methods...
— We present a self-calibrating photogeometric method using only off-the-shelf hardware that enables quickly and robustly obtaining multi-million point-sampled and colored models...
We present a new approach for 3D model indexing and retrieval using 2D/3D shape descriptors based on silhouettes or depth-buffer images. To take into account the dispersion of inf...
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...
Semantic 3D models of buildings encode the geometry as well as the identity of key components of a facility, such as walls, floors, and ceilings. Manually constructing such a mode...
