Point Cloud Completion Via Skeleton-Detail Transformer.

Point cloud shape completion plays a central role in diverse 3D vision and robotics applications. Early methods used to generate global shapes without local detail refinement. Current methods tend to leverage local features to preserve the observed geometric details.

Rank-PointRetrieval: Reranking Point Cloud Retrieval via a Visually Consistent Registration Evaluation.

Point cloud-based place recognition is a fundamental part of the localization task, and it can be achieved through a retrieval process. Reranking is a critical step in improving the retrieval accuracy, yet little effort has been devoted to reranking in point cloud retrieval. In this paper, we investigate the versatility of rigid registration in reranking the point cloud retrieval results.

Seamless Texture Optimization for RGB-D Reconstruction.

Restoring high-fidelity textures for 3D reconstructed models are an increasing demand in AR/VR, cultural heritage protection, entertainment, and other relevant fields. Due to geometric errors and camera pose drifting, existing texture mapping algorithms are either plagued by blurring and ghosting or suffer from undesirable visual seams. In this paper, we propose a novel tri-directional similarity texture synthesis method to eliminate the texture inconsistency in RGB-D 3D reconstruction and generate visually realistic texture mapping results.

Illumination Decomposition for Photograph With Multiple Light Sources.

Illumination decomposition for a single photograph is an important and challenging problem in image editing operation. In this paper, we present a novel coarse-to-fine strategy to perform illumination decomposition for photograph with multiple light sources. We first reconstruct the lighting environment of the image using the estimated geometry structure of the scene.

Surface Reconstruction via Fusing Sparse-Sequence of Depth Images.

Handheld scanning using commodity depth cameras provides a flexible and low-cost manner to get 3D models. The existing methods scan a target by densely fusing all the captured depth images, yet most frames are redundant. The jittering frames inevitably embedded in handheld scanning process will cause feature blurring on the reconstructed model and even trigger the scan failure (i.
