3D Surface Reconstruction: Multi-Scale Hierarchical Approaches presents methods to
model 3D objects in an incremental way so as to capture more finer details at each step. The …

Chromatic methodology for information extraction has evolved from a number of origins,
some based upon human perceptions and the others on scientific and analytical …

Laser radar (LADAR) is a three-dimensional (3-D) imaging system which provides very high-
resolution 3-D images and is used for automatic recognition of 3-D targets. In order to …

In this chapter a particular kind of neural model, namely the Hierarchical Radial Basis
Function Network, is presented as an effective hierarchical network organization. In a similar …

Once the geometrical data of a physical object have been sampled on its surface, the next
step is the generalization of the sampled data to obtain a continuous description of the …

Enhanced chromatic monitoring procedures have been deployed with various types of
signal production hardware (visible optical, infrared [IR] detection, lasers etc.), various signal …

Generally, the first step in the creation of a 3D model consists in capturing the geometric and
color information of the physical object. Objects can be as small as coins or as large as …

A brief overview of the methods for surface reconstruction has been presented in the
previous chapters. In this chapter the attention will be focused on a particular class of …

In the previous chapter the RBFN model and the advantages of a hierarchical version for
surface reconstruction has been presented. In a similar way in this chapter another …
