A method for determining a pose of an object from a range image is presented. A distribution of poses for an object is determined from a model of the object. A set of reference poses is selected according to the distribution, such that more reference poses are selected for more probable poses than less probable poses. A reference image for each reference pose is generated, and the reference pose used to generate the reference image that best matches a range image including the object is assigned as the pose of the object.

Method and system for determining poses of objects from range images using adaptive sampling of pose spaces

Provided is a method for creating a 3-D curved surface by using corresponding curves in a plurality of images. The method includes performing an NURBS fitting curve with respect to one image in a plurality of images having camera calibration and extracted camera parameter by using control points designated in a curve characterizing a subject shape. When the curve fitting is performed with respect to the curve that commonly exists in more than two images, a 3-D curve is created by using a camera calibration information, or a 3-D curved surface is created by creating a plurality of 3-D curves or straight lines. Therefore, a 3-D curved surface model can be easily and quickly created by simplifying a complex modeling process for an actual object modeling into an actual image-based modeling process.
