A Heterarchical Program for Recognition of Polyhedra (opens in new tab)

A Heterarchical Program for Recognition of Polyhedra Shirai, Yoshiaki Recognition of polyhedra by a heterarchical program is presented. The program is based on the strategy of recognizing objects step by step, at each time making use of the previous results. At each stage, the most obvious and simple assumption is made and the assumption is tested. To find a line segment, a range of search is proposed. Once a line segment is found, more of the line is determined by tracking along it. Wheneve...
