1 Mesh segmentation and 3D object recognition Florent Lafarge Inria Sophia Antipolis - Mediterranee

2 What is mesh segmentation?

3 What is mesh segmentation? M = {V,E,F} is a mesh S is either V, E or F (usually F) A Segmentation is the set of sub-meshes induced by a partition of S into k disjoint subsets segmentation can also be called partitioning or clustering

4 Formulating a mesh segmentation problem Usually specifies by two key elements: a function measuring the quality of a partition, eventually under a set of constraints a mechanism for finding an optimal partition.

5 Contents Attributes and constraints Segmentation algorithms

6 How to measure the quality of a segmentation?

7 What are we looking for? Planar clusters?

8 What are we looking for? Planar clusters? Smooth clusters?

9 What are we looking for? Planar clusters? Smooth clusters? Round clusters?

10 What are we looking for? Planar clusters? Smooth clusters? Round clusters? Small/large clusters?

11 What are we looking for? Planar clusters? Smooth clusters? Round clusters? Small/large clusters? Small number of clusters?

12 What are we looking for? Planar clusters? Smooth clusters? Round clusters? Small/large clusters? Small number of clusters? Smooth boundary?

13 What are we looking for? Planar clusters? Smooth clusters? Round clusters? Small/large clusters? Small number of clusters? Smooth boundary? structural clusters?

14 Attributes and constraints Attributes: criteria used to measure the quality of a partition with respect to the input mesh attributes are usually embedded into some metrics

15 Attributes and constraints Attributes: criteria used to measure the quality of a partition with respect to the input mesh attributes are usually embedded into some metrics Constraints: cardinality, geometry or topology of the clusters must be preserved (hard) or favored (soft)

16 Attributes and constraints example of problems without constraints with hard constraints with soft constraints min P f(p,attributes) min P f(p,attributes) under g(p)=0 min P f(p,attributes)-α.g(p)

17 Attributes Distance and Geodesic distance

18 Attributes Distance and Geodesic distance Planarity, normal direction

23 Attributes Distance and Geodesic distance Planarity, normal direction Smoothness, curvature Distance to complex geometric primitives Symmetry Medial Axis, Shape diameter Texture

24 Constraints Cardinality Not too small/large or a given number of clusters Overall balanced partition,.. Geometry Size: area, diameter, radius Convexity, Roundness Boundary smoothness,.. Connectivity Boundary shape, Semantic constraints,..

25 Contents Attributes and constraints Segmentation algorithms

26 Segmentation algorithms Very large variety of «mechanisms» in the literature Common with image processing/computer vision Focus on some of them: Thresholding Region growing Hierarchical partitioning Markov Random Fields

27 Thresholding simple one parameter for a binary segmentation h(i) i

28 Hysteresis thresholding idea: to keep the sites connected (favor large clusters) two parameters for a binary segmentation t l < t h scheme threshold the sites with t l consider as cluster only the set of connected sites all > t l with at least one site > t h

29 Region growing see primitive-based surface reconstruction slides Mechanism while the mesh is not entirely segmented choose an unlabeled site (a facet) assign label k to its similar adjacent sites iterate on the new assigned sites.. when propagation of cluster k finished, update k=k+1

30 hierarchical partitioning start from one region representing the entire mesh divide into several regions when the criteria are not valid, and iterate on the new regions

31 hierarchical partitioning

34 hierarchical partitioning

35 Markov Random Fields (MRF) set of random variables having a Markov property described by an undirected graph

36 Markov property in 1D (Markov chain) X 0 X 1 X n-1 X n n usually corresponds to time

37 Markov property in 2D or on a manifold in 3D (Markov field) P[ X k X {Xk} ]= P[ X k (X n(k) )] with n(k) neighbors of k X n X k1 X k3 X m Xk2 X k X k4 X j

38 Markov property in 2D or on a manifold in 3D (Markov field) P[ X k X {Xk} ]= P[ X k (X n(k) )] with n(k) neighbors of k X n X k1 X k3 X m X k2 X k X k4 X j

39 Markov property notion of neighborhood a MRF is always associated to a neighborhood system defining the dependency between graph nodes

40 Markov property Gibbs energy (Hammersley-Clifford theorem)

41 Markov property Why is the markovian property important? graph with 1M nodes if each node is adjacent to every other nodes: 1M*(999,999)/2 edges ~ 500 G edges each random variable cannot be dependent to all the other ones complexity needs to be reduced by spatial considerations

42 Markov Random Fields (MRF) set of random variables having a Markov property described by an undirected graph for an image, two common graphs nodes = pixel centers edges = adjacent pixels (4-connexity) nodes = pixel corners edges = pixel borders =

43 Markov Random Fields (MRF) set of random variables having a Markov property described by an undirected graph for a mesh: Graph nodes = vertices & graph edges = edges Graph nodes = facets & graph edges = edges Graph nodes = edges & graph edges = vertices

44 Bayesian formulation Let y, the data (attributes) x, the label we want to model the probability of having x knowing y Bayes law

45 Standard assumption: the conditional independence of the observation: (X Y) S I S I X X Pr Pr p p p D

46 From probability to energy data term : local dependency hypothesis regularization : soft constraints

47 Optimal configuration We search for the label configuration x that maximizes P(X=x /Y=y) x = arg max Pr(X=x Y=y) x = arg min U(x) x

48 exercise: binary segmentation or? Graph structure Graph nodes = facets Graph edges = common edges Attributes on facet: [0,1] (y) labels: {white, black} (l) Energy: with yi if li ' white' Di ( li) 1 yi otherwise V i, j ( l, l i j 0 ) 1 if l l otherwise i j

49 jji exercise: binary segmentation or? Graph structure Graph nodes = facets Graph edges = common edges Attributes on facet: [0,1] (y) labels: {white, black} (l) Energy: with yi if li ' white' Di ( li) 1 yi otherwise V i, j ( l, l i j 0 ) 1 if l l otherwise i j Q1: what is the optimal configuration l if β =0? What is its energy? Q2: what is the optimal configuration if β inf? Q3: what are the other possible optimal configurations in function of β?

50 exercise: binary segmentation or?

51 Finding the optimal configuration of labels Graph-cut based approches fast but limitations on energy formulation Monte Carlo sampling slow but no limitation

52 Example: mesh segmentation with principal curvature attributes & soft geometric constraints Multi-label energy model of the form with V, set of vertices of the input mesh E, set of edges in the mesh l i, the label of the vertex i among : planar (1), developable convex (2), developable concave (3) and non developable (4)
