Abstract

In the last 20 years many approaches for the registration and localization of surfaces were developed. Most of them generate solutions by minimizing point distances or maximizing contact areas between surface points. Other algorithms try to detect corresponding points on the two surfaces by searching for points with same features and align them. However, aligning and localizing self-similar surfaces or surfaces having large regions with approximately constant curvature is still a complex problem. In this paper a new algorithm for registration and matching of surfaces is introduced, which extends an approach maximizing the contact area between the surfaces by surface-based dissimilarity features and thereby solves the problem of registering the problematic surfaces described above. Our evaluation shows the great potential of our approach regarding efficiency, accuracy and robustness for various applications like scan alignment, pottery assembly or bone reduction.
