Automated railway object mapping using imagery and point clouds

Everything around us is rapidly changing. Whole new blocks of buildings are built, huge infrastructural projects are constructed and so on. Hence, there is a need of a reliable and up-to-date inventory of the area and the objects of interest for mapping and monitoring assets and their changes. An answer of this upcoming need is an automated...

Semantically-Guided 3D Building Facade Reconstruction: A Learning-Based MVS Approach

This thesis introduces a Learned-Based Multi-View Semantic Stereo method, addressing the limitations of traditional and learned-based Multi-View Stereo (MVS) techniques in reconstructing reflective and low-textured regions, particularly prevalent in 3D models of buildings. Traditional methods lack completeness, while learned-based methods...
