Abstract
A method for localizing, in a space containing at least one determined object, an object element associated to a particular 2D representation element in a determined 2D image of the space, may have: deriving a range or interval of candidate spatial positions for the imaged object element on the basis of predefined positional relationships); restricting the range or interval of candidate spatial positions to at least one restricted range or interval of admissible candidate spatial positions, wherein restricting includes at least one of: limiting the range or interval of candidate spatial positions using at least one inclusive volume surrounding at least one determined object; and limiting the range or interval of candidate spatial positions using at least one exclusive volume surrounding non-admissible candidate spatial positions; and retrieving, among the admissible candidate spatial positions of the restricted range or interval, a most appropriate candidate spatial position on the basis of similarity metrics.
