US Patent 10499031 3D reconstruction of a real object from a depth map

The invention notably relates to a computer-implemented method for learning a function configured for reconstructing, for a class of real objects, a 3D modeled object that represents an instance of the class from a depth map of the instance. The method comprises providing a parametric model of the class, creating a database, and learning the function with the database. The method improves the 3D reconstruction of a real object from a depth map.
