Abstract:

We consider the task of recursively estimating the pose and shape parameters of 3D objects based on noisy point cloud measurements from their surface. We focus on objects whose surface can be constructed by transforming a plane curve, such as a cylinder that is constructed by extruding a circle. However, designing estimators for such objects is challenging, as the straightforward distance-minimizing approach cannot observe all parameters, and additionally is subject to bias in the presence of noise. In this article, we first discuss these issues and then develop probabilistic models for cylinder, torus, cone, and an extruded curve by adapting related approaches including Random Hypersurface Models, partial likelihood, and symmetric shape models. In experiments with simulated data, we show that these models yield unbiased estimators for all parameters even in the presence of high noise.
