Sticks, Plates, and Blobs: A Three-Dimensional Object Representation for Scene Analysis

In this paper, we describe a relational modeling technique which categorizes three-dimensional objects at a gross level. These models may then be used to classify and recognize two dimensional views of the object, in a scene analysis system.
