Stratified Mesh Sampling for VTK
Bottom

Doria D.
This document presents an implementation of a stratified mesh sampling algorithm in the VTK framework. This code was adapted directly from the original implementation by Diego Nehab, with permission. We present a class, vtkStratifiedSampling, which uniformly [...]

Poisson Surface Reconstruction for VTK
Bottom

Doria D., Gelas A.
This document presents an implementation of the Poission surface reconstruction algorithm in the VTK framework. (This code was adapted directly from the original implementation by Misha Kazhdan, with permission). We present a class, vtkPoissonReconstruction, [...]

FFT based convolution
Bottom

Lehmann G.
The Fourier transform of the convolution of two images is equal to the product of their Fourier transform. With this definition, it is possible to create a convolution filter based on the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT). The interesting complexity [...]

Using and Visualizing Projective Cameras in VTK
Bottom

Doria D.
This document presents a set of classes (vtkPhysicalCamera, vtkImageCamera) to enable a camera and an image acquired by that camera to be visualized in a 3D scene. Two situations where one would want to visualize camaras with associated images are range data [...]

A Voodoo Reader and Viewer for VTK
Bottom

Doria D.
Voodoo is a popular, free structure from motion software package. It takes several, ordered images as input and computes the camera parameters of each image as well as a point cloud of an estimate of the 3D structure of the scene. This document presents a set [...]

An ITK implementation of the Normalized Gradient Field Image to Image Metric
Bottom
No opinion
Wollny G., Ledesma-Carbayo M., Santos A.
This article describes the ITK implementation of a Normalized Gradient Fields based image-to-image metric. Some properties of the metric are discussed and example registrations are presented.

A Leica PTX Reader for VTK
Bottom

Doria D.
Leica LiDAR scanners output points in the PTX file format. It is often useful to convert this format to a standard VTK point cloud or mesh format before processing. We propose a new class, vtkPTXReader, to provide this functionality.

Point Set Surface Reconstruction for VTK
Bottom
starstarstarstarstar
Doria D.
This document presents a set of classes (vtkPointSetSurfaceReconstruction, vtkVoxelizePolyData) to produce a surface from an oriented point set. These classes are implemented as VTK filters. A Paraview plugin interface is provided to allow extremely easy [...]

A Wavefront OBJ Writer for VTK
Bottom
starstarstarstarstar
Doria D.
The Wavefront OBJ format is a common file format for storing mesh data. It is convenient to be able to write VTK data structures out into this format, as the data can then be used in software that can read OBJ files.

A VTK-based, CUDA-optimized Non-Parametric Vessel Detection Method
Bottom

Alpoge L., Joshi A., Scheinost D., Onofrey J., Qian X., Papademetris X.
We present a VTK-based implementation of our non-parametric vessel detection method that identifies vascular structures using a polar neighborhood profile. To accelerate the computationally intensive parts of the algorithm, we leverage the hardware [...]

RANSAC Plane Fitting for VTK
Bottom
starstarstarstarstar
Doria D.
RANdom SAmple Concensus (RANSAC) is an iterative method to estimate parameters of a model. It assumes that their are inliers in the data which are well explained by the chosen model. We propose a new class for VTK, vtkRANSACPlane, which estimates the best [...]
