Motivated by the requirements of the present archaeology, we are developing an automated system for archaeological classification and reconstruction of ceramics. Due to the nature of ceramics, most of the excavated vessels are in the form of fragments called sherds. Only a few of the finds are complete, however these finds are the most important and interesting ones. Therefore we are developing a system that handles both complete and broken vessels using two different reconstruction strategies: A shape from silhouette based method for complete vessels and a profile based method for fragments. The profile is the cross-section of the fragment in the direction of the rotational axis of symmetry and can be represented by a closed curve in the plane. For complete vessels the 3D reconstruction is based on a sequence of images of the object taken from different viewpoints. Then the output of both algorithms is used to construct the 3D model of the vessel for classification and display.

In order to create a complete three-dimensional model of an object based on its two-dimensional images, the images have to be acquired from different views. An increasing number of views generally improves the accuracy of the final 3D model but it also increases the time needed to build the model. The number of the possible views can theoretically be infinite. Therefore, it makes sense to try to reduce the number of views to a minimum while preserving a certain accuracy of the model, especially in applications for which the performance is an important issue. We show an approach to next view planning for a fusion of shape from Silhouette, as an example of a passive 3D reconstruction technique, and shape from structured light, as an example of an active 3D reconstruction technique in order to get 3D shape reconstruction with minimal different views. Results of the algorithm developed are presented for both synthetic and real input images.

A novel evolutionary route planner for aircraft is proposed in this paper. In the new planner, individual candidates are evaluated with respect to the workspace, thus the computation of the configuration space is not required. By using problem-specific chromosome structure and genetic operators, the routes are generated in real time, with different mission constraints such as minimum route leg length and flying altitude, maximum turning angle, maximum climbing/diving angle and route distance constraint taken into account.
We present a new method (MIDES) to determine contraction kernels for the construction of graph pyramids. Experimentally the new method has a reduction factor higher than 2.0. Thus, the new method yields a higher reduc...

When matching regions from "similar" images, one typically has the problem of missing counterparts due to local or even global variations of segmentation fineness. Matching segmentation hierarchies, however, not only increases the chances of finding counterparts, but also allows us to exploit the manifold constraints coming from the topological relations between the regions in a hierarchy. In this paper we match hierarchies from panoramic images by constructing an association graph G/sub A/ whose vertices represent potential matches and whose edges indicate topological consistency. Specifically, a maximal [maximum] weight clique of GA corresponds to a topologically consistent mapping with maximal [maximum] total similarity. To find "heavy" cliques, we adapt a greedy pivoting-based heuristic to the weighted case. Experiments on pairs of panoramic images demonstrate the reliability of the results.

To simplify the mesh acquired from at hree-dimensional laser scanner, it is more important to keep the boundary and quality of the region of interest than of other regions. The algorithm must not be sensitive to noise introduced in practical applications. In this paper, we present a novel vertex merging mesh simplification algorithm based on region segmentation. The algorithm can be divided into two stages: segmentation and simplification. After the segmentation of the 3D color mesh into different regions, vertices are classed into a region-boundary vertex, which can only be merged into a region-boundary vertex in order to guarantee the completeness of the regions' boundary, and region-inner vertex. The iterative vertex merging is applied with a region-weighted error metric, which implements controllable simplifications. We demonstrate our method with several examples of a 3D color human head mesh.

image fusion refers to the techniques that integrate complementary information from multiple image sensor data such that the new images are more suitable for the purpose of human visual perception and the compute processing tasks. In this paper, a new image fusion algorithm based on wavelet packet transform to fuse multisensor images is presented. Discrete wavelet transform (DWT) can offer a more precise way for image analysis, than other multi-resolution analysis. It decomposes an image into low frequency band and high frequency band in different level, and it can also be reconstructed gradually in different level. But this method only decomposes low frequency band in a higher scale, so that it omits some useful details of the images. In this paper, we present a new image fusion algorithm. In the algorithm, we use discrete wavelet packet transform (DWPT) to decompose and reconstruct the images. When images are merged in wavelet packet space, different frequency ranges are processed differently. It can merge information from original images adequately and improve abilities of information analysis and feature extraction. This image fusion is performed at the pixel level. In this fusion algorithm, a feature-based fusion rule is used to combine original subimages and to form a pyramid for the fused image. Through merging remote sensing images from multi-sensor to a same object by applying method of wavelet packet analysis, we have obtained a fused picture. In this paper, mutual information is employed as a means of objective assessing image fusion performance. The experiment results show that this fusion algorithm, based on wavelet packet transform, is an effective approach in image fusion area.
