Bilateral Contracts with Industry

Astrium

Participants : Sven Oesau, Florent Lafarge, Pierre Alliez.

The main goal of this collaboration is to devise new algorithms for reconstructing 3D indoor models that are more accurate, meaningful and complete than existing methods. The conventional way for modeling indoor scenes is based on plane arrangements. This type of representation is particularly limited and must be improved by devising more complex geometric entities adapted to a detailed and semantized description of scenes.

- Starting date: April 2012

- Duration: 3 years

Geoimage

Participants : Liuyun Duan, Florent Lafarge, Pierre Alliez.

The aim of this collaboration is to devise a new type of 2.5D representation from satellite multi-view stereo images which is more accurate, compact and meaningful than the conventional DEMs. A key direction consists in incorporating semantic information directly during the image matching process. This semantic is related to the type of components of the scene, such as vegetation, roofs, building edges, roads and land.

- Starting date: November 2013

- Duration: 3 years

Technicolor

Participants : Xavier Rolland-Neviere, Pierre Alliez.

The goal of this Cifre Ph.D. thesis project is to devise a method for watermarking 3D models, with resilience to a wide range of attacks and poses.

- Starting date: October 2012

- Duration: 3 years
