Abstract
A framework for 3D object recognition is presented. Its
flexibility and extensibility are accomplished through a uniform,
parallel, and modular recognition architecture. Concurrent and stacked
parameter transforms reconstruct a variety of features from the input
scene. At each stage, constraint satisfaction networks collect and fuse
the evidence obtained through the parameter transforms, ensuring a
globally consistent interpretation of the input scene and allowing for
the integration of diverse types of information. The final
interpretation of the scene is a small consistent subset of the many
initial hypotheses about partial features, primitive features, feature
assemblies, and 3D objects computed by the various parameter transforms.
A complete, integrated, and implemented system that extracts planar
surfaces, patches of quadrics of revolution, and planar intersection
curves of these surfaces from a depth map viewing 3D objects is
described. Experimental results on the recognition behavior of the
system are presented
