This book summarizes the results of our modeling-from-reality (MFR) project which took place over the last decade or so. The goal of this project is to develop techniques for modeling real objects and/or environments into geometric and photometric models through computer vision techniques. By developing such techniques, time consuming modeling process, currently un- dertaken by human programmers, can be (semi-)automatically performed, and, as a result, we can drastically shorten the developing time of such virtual reality systems, reduce their developing cost, and widen their application...

Some of the fundamental constraints of automated machine vision have been the inability to automatically adapt parameter settings or utilize previous adaptations in changing environments. Symbolic Visual Learning presents research which adds visual learning capabilities to computer vision systems. Using this state-of-the-art recognition technology, the outcome is different adaptive recognition systems that can measure their own performance, learn from their experience and outperform conventional static designs. Written as a companion volume to Early Visual Learning (edited...

A large number of cultural heritage objects around the world are deteriorating or being destroyed due to the work of natural disasters, such as earthquakes and floods, and human-inflicted destruction, such as war and vandalism. In the wake of these threats, 3D data becomes a critical component to permanently recording the shapes of these important objects so that they might be passed down to future generations.
Digitally Archiving Cultural Objects describes thorough research and methods for preserving cultural heritage objects through the use of 3D digital data. These...
