Abstract

The recognition of general three-dimensional objects in cluttered scenes is a challenging problem. In particular, the design of a good representation suitable to model large numbers of generic objects that is also robust to occlusion has been an stumbling block in achieving success. In this paper, we propose a representation using appearance-based parts and relations to overcome these problems. Appearance-based parts and relations are defined in terms of closed regions and the union of these regions, respectively. The regions are segmented using the MDL principle, and their appearance is obtained from collection of images and compactly represented by parametric manifolds in the two eigenspaces spanned by the parts and the relations.
