Dense 3D Object Reconstruction from a Single Depth View
In this paper, we propose a novel approach, 3D-RecGAN++, which reconstructs
the complete 3D structure of a given object from a single arbitrary depth view
using generative adversarial networks. Unlike existing work which typically
requires multiple views of the same object or class labels to recover the full
3D geometry, the proposed 3D-RecGAN++ only takes the voxel grid representation
of a depth view of the object as input, and is able to generate the complete 3D
occupancy grid with a high resolution of 256^3 by recovering the
occluded/missing regions. The key idea is to combine the generative
capabilities of autoencoders and the conditional Generative Adversarial
Networks (GAN) framework, to infer accurate and fine-grained 3D structures of
objects in high-dimensional voxel space. Extensive experiments on large
synthetic datasets and real-world Kinect datasets show that the proposed
3D-RecGAN++ significantly outperforms the state of the art in single view 3D
object reconstruction, and is able to reconstruct unseen types of objects.Comment: TPAMI 2018. Code and data are available at:

CDDT: Fast Approximate 2D Ray Casting for Accelerated Localization
Localization is an essential component for autonomous robots. A
well-established localization approach combines ray casting with a particle
filter, leading to a computationally expensive algorithm that is difficult to
run on resource-constrained mobile robots. We present a novel data structure
called the Compressed Directional Distance Transform for accelerating ray
casting in two dimensional occupancy grid maps. Our approach allows online map
updates, and near constant time ray casting performance for a fixed size map,
in contrast with other methods which exhibit poor worst case performance. Our
experimental results show that the proposed algorithm approximates the
performance characteristics of reading from a three dimensional lookup table of
ray cast solutions while requiring two orders of magnitude less memory and
precomputation. This results in a particle filter algorithm which can maintain
2500 particles with 61 ray casts per particle at 40Hz, using a single CPU
thread onboard a mobile robot.Comment: 8 pages, 14 figures, ICRA versio
OctNetFusion: Learning Depth Fusion from Data
In this paper, we present a learning based approach to depth fusion, i.e.,
dense 3D reconstruction from multiple depth images. The most common approach to
depth fusion is based on averaging truncated signed distance functions, which
was originally proposed by Curless and Levoy in 1996. While this method is
simple and provides great results, it is not able to reconstruct (partially)
occluded surfaces and requires a large number frames to filter out sensor noise
and outliers. Motivated by the availability of large 3D model repositories and
recent advances in deep learning, we present a novel 3D CNN architecture that
learns to predict an implicit surface representation from the input depth maps.
Our learning based method significantly outperforms the traditional volumetric
fusion approach in terms of noise reduction and outlier suppression. By
learning the structure of real world 3D objects and scenes, our approach is
further able to reconstruct occluded regions and to fill in gaps in the
reconstruction. We demonstrate that our learning based approach outperforms
both vanilla TSDF fusion as well as TV-L1 fusion on the task of volumetric
fusion. Further, we demonstrate state-of-the-art 3D shape completion results.Comment: 3DV 2017, https://github.com/griegler/octnetfusio
