Automatic Reconstruction of Textured 3D Models
Three dimensional modeling and visualization of environments is an increasingly important problem. This work addresses the problem of automatic 3D reconstruction and we present a system for unsupervised reconstruction of textured 3D models in the context of modeling indoor environments. We present solutions to all aspects of the modeling process and an integrated system for the automatic creation of large scale 3D models

3D Face Reconstruction by Learning from Synthetic Data
Fast and robust three-dimensional reconstruction of facial geometric
structure from a single image is a challenging task with numerous applications.
Here, we introduce a learning-based approach for reconstructing a
three-dimensional face from a single image. Recent face recovery methods rely
on accurate localization of key characteristic points. In contrast, the
proposed approach is based on a Convolutional-Neural-Network (CNN) which
extracts the face geometry directly from its image. Although such deep
architectures outperform other models in complex computer vision problems,
training them properly requires a large dataset of annotated examples. In the
case of three-dimensional faces, currently, there are no large volume data
sets, while acquiring such big-data is a tedious task. As an alternative, we
propose to generate random, yet nearly photo-realistic, facial images for which
the geometric form is known. The suggested model successfully recovers facial
shapes from real images, even for faces with extreme expressions and under
various lighting conditions.Comment: The first two authors contributed equally to this wor
