MERGING THREE-DIMENSIONAL MODELS BASED ON CONFIDENCE SCORES

摘要

In an embodiment, a method merges a plurality of three-dimensional models, each having been generated from images of a camera having a different viewpoint. For respective voxels in a plurality of voxels, a plurality of distance values are determined. Each determined distance value is a distance from the voxel to a three dimensional model from the plurality of three-dimensional models along a perspective of a camera model used to generate the three-dimensional model. When at least one of the determined distance values indicates that the distance between the voxel and the three dimensional model exceeds a threshold and the voxel is located above the corresponding three-dimensional model, a confidence score is determined indicating a degree to which the perspective of the camera model of the corresponding three-dimensional model is oriented to face the voxel. Based on the determined confidence score, the voxel into a merged three-dimensional model is determined.
