Fast rotation search with stereographic projections for 3D registration

Registering two 3D point clouds involves estimating the rigid transform that brings the two point clouds into alignment. Recently there has been a surge of interest in using branch-and-bound (BnB) optimisation for point cloud registration. While BnB …

Robust rotation search in computer vision

Rotation search is a fundamental problem which has significant importance in geometric computer vision. In many practical settings, data or measurements for rotation search are usually contaminated with large errors, leading to the existence of …

Guaranteed outlier removal for rotation search

Rotation search has become a core routine for solving many computer vision problems. The aim is to rotationally align two input point sets with correspondences. Recently, there is significant interest in developing globally optimal rotation search …

Fast rotation search with stereographic projections for 3D registration

Recently there has been a surge of interest to use branch-and-bound (bnb) optimisation for 3D point cloud registration. While bnb guarantees globally optimal solutions, it is usually too slow to be practical. A fundamental source of difficulty is the …

Fast rotation search for real-time interactive point cloud registration

Our goal is the registration of multiple 3D point clouds obtained from LIDAR scans of underground mines. Such a capability is crucial to the surveying and planning operations in mining. Often, the point clouds only partially overlap and initial …
