Abstract
A system and method for recovering three-dimensional (3D) particle systems from two-dimensional (2D) images are provided. The system and method of the present invention provide for identifying a fuzzy object in a two-dimensional (2D) image; selecting a particle system from a plurality of predetermined particle systems, the selected particle system relating to a predefined fuzzy object; generating at least one particle of the selected particle system; simulating the at least one particle to update states of the at least one particle; rendering the selected particle system; comparing the rendered particle system to the identified fuzzy object in the 2D image; and storing the selected particle system if the comparison result is within an acceptable threshold, wherein the stored particle system represents the recovered geometry of the fuzzy object.
