Call for Papers 3D Computer Vision in the Built Environment in association with the International Conference on 3D Vision (3DV) 2014 http://3dvis.ri.cmu.edu/3dv-workshop/ -------------------------------------------------------- Overview -------------------------------------------------------- Buildings and other infrastructure provide a limited, yet challenging, domain for 3D computer vision techniques. Terrestrial laser scanners, RGB-D cameras, mobile scanning robots, and micro air vehicles (MAVs) are just some of the platforms that are being used to capture and model the built environment. Such 3D models have enormous potential for aiding practitioners in a wide variety of fields, ranging from architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) to post-disaster search and rescue. This workshop will explore the state of the art in techniques that use 3D imaging for modeling, analyzing, and understanding the built environment. -------------------------------------------------------- Organizers -------------------------------------------------------- Daniel Huber - Senior Systems Scientist, Robotics Institute, Carnegie Mellon University Burcu Akinci - Professor, Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, Carnegie Mellon University -------------------------------------------------------- Steering Committee -------------------------------------------------------- Katsushi Ikeuchi - Professor, Institute of Industrial Science, University of Tokyo Mani Golparver-Fard - Assistant Professor, Civil and Environmental Engineering / Computer Science, University of Illinois -------------------------------------------------------- Topics of Interest (include but are not limited to) -------------------------------------------------------- Mapping * RGB-D mapping * Vision-based SLAM * Hybrid 2D/3D SLAM Modeling * Modeling indoor environments * Building modeling * Infrastructure modeling * Pipe and process plant modeling * Knowledge-based modeling * Modeling with uncertain or noisy sensors * Efficient representations of built environment * Integrating as-built BIM with design models Recognition * Facade recognition * Building component recognition * Recognizing components in process plants * Parametric component recognition Analysis * Defect detection in infrastructure * Modeling imperfect geometry Visualization * Interactive visualization of the built environment * Augmented reality with 3D imaging Applications * Points-to-BIM conversion * Commercial and residential buildings * Bridges * Dams * Roads * Mines and underground infrastructure Case Studies * Requirements for spatial data collection * Analysis of modeling workflows * Case studies in mapping, modeling, recognition, or visualization * Application-oriented case studies -------------------------------------------------------- Deadlines -------------------------------------------------------- Paper submission: August 31, 2014 Paper acceptance notification: September 30, 2014 Camera ready: October 10, 2014 Workshop: December 8, 2014 -------------------------------------------------------- Paper Submission -------------------------------------------------------- Papers should be written in English.
