%0 Journal Article %T Adapting the RANSAC algorithm to detect 2nd-degree manifolds in 2D and 3D %A Leszek Luchowski %J Theoretical and Applied Informatics %D 2012 %I Polish Academy of Sciences %R 10.2478/v10179-012-0007-2 %X The RAndom SAmple Consensus algorithm is adapted to sets of points detected in 2D and 3D images in order to identify conic lines and quadric surfaces, respectively. A first-order approximation of point-to-conic (quadric) distance is used as compliance criterion. Experimental results are presented. %K point cloud segmentation %K second-order surface detection %U http://versita.metapress.com/content/80840u1221277250/?p=2a758448354f4a47a0c4592ab746d2d9&pi=3
