Abstract

Aspect graph is an important method in 3D object recognition. To effectively compute the viewpoint space partition (VSP) is critical in acquiring a good aspect graph. In this paper, we present improvements to the VSP algorithm under perspective model: computing EV (Edge Vertex) events using triangle face feature; simplifying VSP representation; boundary intersection updating; closed loop region computing; generating multi-resolution VSP. We show the partition results, which demonstrate our algorithm’s effectiveness and fastness (less than 2 min). Based on the aspect graph constructed using the improved algorithm, we perform 3D object recognition, which matched all tested objects to the correct counterparts in database.
