    Keywords: 3-D perception, geometric modeling.
    Abstract: "We present a method for building models of complex environments from range data gathered at multiple viewpoints. Our approach is unique in that no prior knowledge of the relative positions of the viewpoints is needed in order to register data from them. Furthermore, we present a technique for specification and utilization of so-called "common-sense" constraints on the transformations between views to improve the accuracy and speed of the registration process. Results are shown from our effort to map a 60 m by 20 m multiple-room storage area containing a cluttered array of objects."

    Keywords: 3-D perception, geometric modeling.
    Abstract: "We present a 3-D shape-based object recognition system for simultaneous recognition of multiple objects in scenes containing clutter and occlusion. Recognition is based on matching surfaces by matching points using the spin-image representation. The spin-image is a data level shape descriptor that is used to match surfaces represented as surface meshes. Starting with the general matching framework introduced earlier, we present a compression scheme for spin-images; this scheme results in efficient multiple object recognition which we verify with results showing the simultaneous recognition of multiple objects from a library of 20 models. In addition, we demonstrate the robust performance of recognition in the presence of clutter and occlusion through analysis of recognition trials on 100 scenes. We address efficiency and generality through two extensions to the basic matching scheme: fast filtering of scene points and processing of general data sets."

    Abstract: "In this paper, we describe an algorithm for object recognition that explicitly models and estimates the posterior probability function, P(object|image). We have chosen a functional form of the posterior probability function that captures the joint statistics of local appearance and position on the object as well as the statistics of local appearance in the visual world at large. We use a discrete representation of local appearance consisting of approximately 1,000,000 patterns. We compute an estimate of P(object|image) in closed form by counting the frequency of occurrence of these patterns over various sets of training images. We have used this method for detecting human faces from frontal and profile views. The algorithm for frontal views has shown a detection rate of 93.0 percent with 88 false alarms on a set of 125 images containing 483 faces combining the MIT test set of Sung and Poggio with the CMU test sets of Rowley, Baluja, and Kanade. The algorithm for detection of profile views has also demonstrated promising results"
