Shape from Angle Regularity

By

Urban architecture is characterized by a profusion of straight lines that meet orthogonally. This simple observation leads to a flexible definition of the man-made world and the distortion in these regular angles serves as a new shape-from-X cue. This project formulates the idea and explores its applications in various scenarios in detail.

Publications

Some initial results are described in our ECCV 2012 paper: Zaheer, Rashid and Khan “Shape from Angle Regularity”. Specifically, we take a single image as input and show:

  • how to formulate the known angle constraint on line-pairs
  • use this constraint and the angle regularity to automatically rectify an image of a plane
  • automatic segmentation of a multi-planar structure into its constituent planes
  • multi-planar reconstruction of the scene
  • results on a collection of images which will be challenging for earlier SVR algorithms to reconstruct due to their restricted world models

Our Single View Reconstruction algorithm is the first to deal with arbitrary plane and camera orientations, arbitrary polygonal plane boundaries, both indoor and outdoor scenarios, and works well despite presence of clutter, natural objects and non-building regions like sky.

Resources: Paper pre-print, publisher; Poster; Code and Data will be published soon!

Abstract We propose Automatic Metric Rectification of projectively distorted 3D structures for man-made scenes using Angle Regularity. Man-made scenes, such as buildings, are characterized by a profusion of mutually orthogonal planes and lines. Assuming the availability of planar segmentation, we search for the rectifying 3D homography  which maximizes the number of orthogonal plane-pairs in the…
