Recovering the Spatial Layout of Cluttered Rooms

Abstract:


In this paper, we consider the problem of recovering the spatial layout of indoor scenes from monocular images. The presence of clutter is a major problem for existing singleview 3D reconstruction algorithms, most of which rely on finding the ground-wall boundary. In most rooms, this boundary is partially or entirely occluded. We gain robustness to clutter by modeling the global room space with a parameteric 3D “box” and by iteratively localizing clutter and refitting the box. To fit the box, we introduce a structured learning algorithm that chooses the set of parameters to minimize error, based on global perspective cues. On a dataset of 308 images, we demonstrate the ability of our algorithm to recover spatial layout in cluttered rooms and show several examples of estimated free space.

Spatial Layout Code:

Test code for estimating spatial layout of an image as described in ICCV'09 paper. Feature computation uses integral images in rectified domain, as described in ECCV'10. This is mainly done for speedup and might result into small differences in results. This package also contains source code for vanishing points executable provided above.
This code is distributed as is for research purpose only.
