6.7.3 Minimization Procedure
The DLM-ICP cost function (6.24) is a sum of squared residuals, nonlinearly depending on the unknowns in M. Therefore, as in Sect. 6.6, the Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm can be used. In order to provide partial derivatives of the residuals through a Jacobian matrix, all five terms in the cost function are separately differentiated and stacked as:
J T = JdT JbT JsT JtT JxT , |
(6.33) |
where JdNm×3Nm , JbNB ×3Nm , Js3Nm ×3Nm , JtNm×3Nm , Jxξ ×3Nm , are related to the global attraction, boundary attraction, spatial smoothness, temporal smoothness and non-
extensibility terms respectively, and ξ = size(N (M)). In particular, the Jacobians of global and boundary attraction terms are estimated by finite differences through distance transform, as described in Sect. 6.6.
Note that, in this case, since the Hessian matrix11 H = JTJ + λI must be inverted at each LM iteration, the problem is not tractable if the number of model points is too high (if the deformation field is too dense). One advantage of the proposed approach is that the Jacobian matrix J is very sparse. Thus, it uses the sparsity to speed up each iteration using the technique in [68]. In particular, a sparse Cholesky factorization package can be used, as in the Matlab ‘mldivide’ function.
6.7.4 Summary of the Algorithm
The DLM-ICP algorithm can be summarized as follows:
1.Choose the model-size R × C (for instance, 10 × 10)
2.Initialize the template-model M0
3.For each data-frame Di
a.Extract data boundary BD
b.Set Mi = Mi−1 to initialize the LM algorithm
c.Apply LM-ICP to estimate Mi by minimizing the error function
d.Goto 3.
Step 3.c is described in Sect. 6.6.4. Here, the unknown is a = Mi , the error function E(Mi ) is defined by Eq. (6.24), and the Jacobian J is defined by Eq. (6.33).
6.7.5 Experiments
In the following experiment, the sensor is a real-time passive-stereo system.12 The sensor acquires images at 25 FPS (frames-per-second) and provides both intensity

Fig. 6.17 Data acquisition: intensity image of the blanket (left), image-boundary (center), and the 3D point cloud (right)
(i.e. 2D) and 3D information. The deformation of a portion of a blanket is modeled. Figure 6.17 shows a picture of the blanket. Intensity information is used to segment the boundary; more precisely, only the portion delimited by the dark square is considered. Figure 6.17 also shows the image-boundary extracted by combining a binary image segmentation method with 2D morphological operators and depicts the 3D data (i.e. the selected point cloud and 3D boundary).
The sequence is made of 100 point clouds. A model of size R = 15 and C = 20 is used. Model initialization M0 is carried out by lying the model-grid on a plane which is fitted to the extracted point cloud. Model initialization is employed in the first frame only. Then, each iteration uses the output of the previous one as an initial condition. Note that a higher value of λb is necessary (i.e. λb = 1.5) for a correct convergence of the algorithm to the optimal solution. The other terms are set almost equally to 1. The distance transform parameters are important: the size of the voxels trades off speed and accuracy. In this experiment, the volume is divided into 36 × 36 × 18 voxels. Figure 6.18 shows a selection of the output sequence. For each frame, we visualize: (i) the intensity image with the extracted 2D boundary and the
Fig. 6.18 Blanket sequence: 4 selected frames. For each frame the 2D intensity and the 3D data is visualized. The grid models are shown in 3D space, as well as their projection in the 2D image
