摘要:It is well known that vanishing point based analysis requires images with strong perspective effects due to wide angle lenses, close objects, and often oblique viewing angles. Aerial imagery, however, normally present weak perspective effects because of long- range shootings. In this paper, we present a model-based method for reconstructing rectilinear buildings from single images. The recovery algorithm is formulated in terms of two objective functions which are based on the equivalence between the vector normal to the interpretation plane in the image space and the vector normal to the rotated interpretation plane in the object space. These objective functions are minimized with respect to the camera pose, the building dimensions, locations and orientations to obtain estimates for the structure of the scene. The comparison with the vanishing points based method indicates that our method is significantly superior over the vanishing points based method. The effectiveness of this approach is also demonstrated quantitatively through simulations and actual images
