Three-Dimensional Object Recognition from Range Images

The primary aim of this book is to present a coherent and self-contained description of recent developments in three-dimensional object recognition from range data. The problem of three-dimensional object recognition, which deals with recognizing objects and estimating their poses from a range image, is one of both theoretical and practical interest. Due to the recent advances in range-sensing technology that have made range sensors fast, reliable and economical, the problem has acquired special importance in the computer vision research community. The book is unique in the sense that it provides an in-depth coverage of all important issues that pertain to the problem of 3-D object recognition in a single volume, from sensing to implementation. Following an up-to-date survey of range sensing and range image segmentation, the book discusses feature extraction and representation.
