Generic recognition of articulated objects by reasoning about functionality
K. Green, D. Eggert, Louise Stark, Kevin W. Bowyer · 2002
Previous work on the recognition of objects by reasoning about their functionality has not dealt with objects that have moving parts. In this paper we introduce a scenario in which object recognition is accomplished by first deriving an articulated shape model from an observed sequence of 3-D shapes and by then reasoning about the possible functionality of the articulated shape model.
