GMorpherSkl

GMorpherSkl aims to do 3D deformable EMICP with two parameterizations: surfaces and skeletons. Currently it works only on Windows systems. Please cite the following IJCV paper if you use the code.

Dependencies (required):

1. CMake (at least version 2.8)
2. CUDA (the newer the better, I use v8.0.61)
3. CGAL and Boost: http://www.cgal.org/download/windows.html
4. OpenCV 2.4
5. Eigen
6. Ceres
   a. glog
   b. gflag
   c. suitesparse-metis-for-windows

Dependencies (optional):

1. OpenGL things (needed when we start doing 2D rendering in the future):
   
   • Gl.h and GLU.h in your system folder.
     
   • glew: http://glew.sourceforge.net/
     
   • glut: http://www.cs.uregina.ca/Links/class-info/315/WWW/Lab1/GLUT/windows.html
     

Installation:

Please follow this file for further installation instruction.

Running the code:

You can run the program in command line like this:

> GMorpherBone_3DEMICP.exe -meshRef path2refModel (.off)
                           -meshBaseName "path2inputFolder\%04d.off"
                           -outBaseName "path2outputFolder\%04d"
                           -F 1 (first frame)
                           -L 173 (last frame)
                           -NThresh 0.5
                           -Eoutlier 0.01
                           -sigma0 4
                           -probabilistic 1 (consider soft assignments)
                           -prediction 1 (consider locations predicted from the neighboring patches)
                           -S 4 (patch size)
                           -EMF_ICP 5 (force for data term; bigger value means softer surfaces)
