ESTIMATION METHOD, ESTIMATION APPARATUS AND PROGRAM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

  • This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 18023670 Titled 'ESTIMATION METHOD, ESTIMATION APPARATUS AND PROGRAM'

Simplified Explanation

This abstract describes an estimation method executed by a device. The method involves estimating a feature quantity of a point cloud, deriving a depth vector of the point cloud, estimating a shift amount of the point cloud coordinates based on the feature quality, shifting the coordinates of the point cloud based on the shift amount and depth vector, and estimating parameters of a plane that fits the coordinates of the point clouds.


Original Abstract Submitted

An estimation method is an estimation method executed by an estimation device, and includes a feature estimation step of estimating a feature quantity regarding coordinates of a point cloud, a depth derivation step of deriving a depth vector of the point cloud on the basis of predetermined parameters, a shift amount estimation step of deriving a shift amount of the coordinates of the point cloud on the basis of the feature quality, a shift processing step of shifting the coordinates of the point cloud on the basis of the shift amount and the depth vector, and a plane estimation step of estimating parameters of a plane that fits the coordinates of the point clouds including the point cloud whose coordinates have been shifted.
