  • Publication number: 20160203636
    Abstract: A method for extracting a skeleton form a point cloud includes: obtaining inputted point cloud sampling data; contracting the point cloud using an iterative formula and obtaining skeleton branches, the iterative formula is: argmin X ? ? i ? I ? ? ? j ? J ? ? ? x i - q i ? ? ? ? ( ? x j - q j ? ) + R ? ( X ) , ? wherein R ? ( X ) = ? i ? I ? ? ? i ? ? i ? ? I ? \ ? { i } ? ? ? ? ( ? x i - x i ? ? ) ? i ? ? x i - x i ? ? , ? ? ( r ) = ? - 4 ? ? r 2 h 2 , wherein J represents a point set of the point cloud sampling data, q represents the sampling points in the point set J, I represents a neighborhood point set of the sampling points q, x represents the neighborhood points in the neighborhood point set I, R is a regular term, ? is a weighting coefficient, h is a neighborhood radius of the neighborhood point set I, and ? is a distribution coefficient; and connecti

  • Patent number: 8718393
    Abstract: An urban scenes reconstruction method includes: acquiring digital data of a three-dimensional subject, the digital data comprising a 2D photograph and a 3D scan; fusing the 3D scan and the 2D photograph to create a depth-augmented photograph; decomposing the depth-augmented photograph into a plurality of constant-depth layers; detecting repetition patterns of each constant-depth layer; and using the repetitions to enhance the 3D scan to generate a polygon-level 3D reconstruction.
