Mesh construction from non-uniformly distributed and noisy 3D points recovered from image sequence

Abstract

This paper describes a novel method for constructing triangle meshes from noisy and non-uniformly distributed 3D points. It consists of two steps: noise point removal uses a clustering algorithm and epipolar constraint method to identify and remove noise points from the 3D points; and a constructive polygonization algorithm interpolates cleaned 3D points to construct a triangle mesh of the object.
