2 Introduction Goal To assemble and repair fragmented skulls to complete models. Motivation Skull Completion is important in forensic and anthropological facial reconstruction. The traditional state-of-the-art approach: Time consuming Domain expertise required Subjective when large regions are missing Proposed Approach: Computer-aided completion in digital environment 2 / 17

5 Fragmented Skull Assembling In: A set of fragments M i and template S. Out: A set of rigid transformations T i (applied on M i ), so that the arrangement of all fragments in world coordinates well approximates S. 5 / 17

6 Feature Exaction Feature Extraction Slippage Feature on each Fragment M i. Signature Spin Image [Johnson et al. 1999]. Why Spin Image? Comparing the Geometric Properties of regions. Our Modified Spin-Image Signature Resolution-Invariance Direction Filtering 6 / 17

7 Finding Coarse Correspondence I/O In: Spin image signatures on fragments feature points and template points. Out: Correspondence from feature points (on fragments) to the template. The most possible many-to-many mapping (most similar corresponding pairs of points) is the coarse correspondence. 7 / 17

8 Fragment-Template Matching Optimal Correspondence Exact a most isometric sub-set [Tevs et al. 2009]. Local Registration Compute rigid transform by optimal corresponding. 8 / 17

9 Inter-Fragment Refinement Avoid Intersection Between Fragments Refinement: Taking the computed transformations as starting variables, to minimize the objective function composed of three terms: E(T 1,..., T n) = αe I + βe F + γe T, where E I = i,j n,i<j Int(T i(m i ), T j (M j )), E F = i v T i (M i ) Dis(v, S) 2, E T = i S(T i). 9 / 17

10 Skull Completion I/O In: The assembled skull with damage regions, and a template. Out: A repaired skull The completion is based on the surface matching between the the template and subject skull. 10 / 17

11 Template-based Completion Non-rigid Template/Subject Mapping In: A template model, and the assembled skull. Out: Affine transformations on each template vertex Minimizing the following matching energy: E = λ 1 E data + λ 2 E shape where E data = Dis 2 (T i + v i, M) v i S E shape = T i T j 2 e i,j,v i,v j S 11 / 17

12 Template-based Completion I/O In: Deformed template and assembled object skull. Out: Repaired object skull Cut and paste. Filling small holes/gaps[liepa et al. 2003] Smoothing[Kobbelt et al. 1998] 12 / 17
