Abstract

We present a novel approach to reliable and efficient recovery of part-descriptions in terms of superquadric models from range data. We show that superquadrics can directly be recovered from unsegmented data, thus avoiding any presegmentation steps (e.g., in terms of surfaces). The approach is based on the recover-and-select paradigm [10]. We present several experiments on real and synthetic range images, where we demonstrate the stability of the results with respect to viewpoint and noise.
