Abstract:
This paper examines the application of an evolutionary algorithm (GENOCOP III) to the problem of fitting surfaces and lines to both 2D synthetic and real 3D range data. The fitting is performed with both non-linear (domain) constraints and with non-linear (geometric and relational) constraints. Example fittings are given as well as an explanation of experimental caveats that should be address when using this kind of approach. We have discovered, for example, that the time to generate starting reference pointes on the solution manifold is a significant part of the experiment time.
