Abstract
A methodology for evaluating range image segmentation algorithms
is proposed. This methodology involves (1) a common set of 40 laser
range finder images and 40 structured light scanner images that have
manually specified ground truth and (2) a set of defined performance
metrics for instances of correctly segmented, missed, and noise regions,
over- and under-segmentation, and accuracy of the recovered geometry. A
tool is used to objectively compare a machine generated segmentation
against the specified ground truth. Four research groups have
contributed to evaluate their own algorithm for segmenting a range image
into planar patches
