Texture Based Approach to Puzzle Assembly

摘要: The puzzle assembly problem has many application areas such as restoration and reconstruction of archeological findings, repairing broken objects, solving jigsaw type puzzles, molecular docking problem, etc.. This paper presents a new approach to the that is based on using textural features geometrical constraints. texture band outside border pieces predicted by inpainting synthesis methods. confidence this process also defined. Feature values are derived from these original images pieces. A combination feature used generate an affinity measure corresponding optimization total gives best puzzle. Experimental results presented real artificial data. An application, V-Stitch developed, with purpose providing real-time virtual reality software system intuitive interface for semi-automatic algorithms developed arrangement sherds
