Distinctive Representations for the Recognition of Curved Surfaces Using Outlines and Markings

Recognising 3D objects from single images presents a range of significant problems, mostly to do with the nature and distinctiveness of the representations that can be recovered. In such special cases as polyhedra, surfaces of revolution, general cones, canal surfaces and algebraic surfaces, the geometry can be recovered with varying degrees of success and of ambiguity. We discuss these volumetric primitives, comparing their utility to that of surface primitives.
