Due to the point cloud of oral scan denture has a large amount of data and redundant points. A point cloud simplification algorithm based on feature preserving is proposed to solve the problem that the feature preserving is incomplete when processing point cloud data and cavities occur in relatively flat regions. Firstly, the algorithm uses kd-tree to construct the point cloud spatial topological to search the k-Neighborhood of the sampling point. On the basis of that to calculate the curvature of each point, the angle between the normal vector, the distance from the point to the neighborhood centroid, as well as the standard deviation and the average distance from the point to the neighborhood on this basis, therefore, the detailed features of point cloud can be extracted by multi-feature extraction and threshold determination. For the non-characteristic region, the non-characteristic point cloud is spatially divided through Octree to obtain the K-value of K-means clustering algorithm and the initial clustering center point. The simplified results of non-characteristic regions are obtained after further subdivision. Finally, the extracted detail features and the reduced result of non-featured region will be merged to obtain the final simplification result. The experimental results show that the algorithm can retain the characteristic information of point cloud model better, and effectively avoid the phenomenon of holes in the simplification process. The simplified results have better smoothness, simplicity and precision, and are of high practical value.

To further improve the performance of the point cloud simplification algorithm and reserve the feature information of parts point cloud, a new method based on modified fuzzy c-means (MFCM) clustering algorithm with feature information reserved is proposed. Firstly, the normal vector, angle entropy, curvature, and density information of point cloud are calculated by combining principal component analysis (PCA) and k-nearest neighbors (k-NN) algorithm, respectively; Secondly, gravitational search algorithm (GSA) is introduced to optimize the initial cluster center of fuzzy c-means (FCM) clustering algorithm. Thirdly, the point cloud data combined coordinates with its feature information are divided by the MFCM algorithm. Finally, the point cloud is simplified according to point cloud feature information and simplified parameters. The point cloud test data are simplified using the new algorithm and traditional algorithms; then, the results are compared and discussed. The results show that the new proposed algorithm can not only effectively improve the precision of point cloud simplification but also reserve the accuracy of part features.

In this paper, aiming at the problem of poor quality and low spraying efficiency of irregular for complex freeform surfaces, a new spray painting robot trajectory planning method based on point cloud slicing technology is proposed. Firstly, the point cloud data of the workpiece to be sprayed is obtained by laser scanning. The point cloud data is processed to obtain the point cloud model of the sprayed workpiece. Then the section polysemy line is obtained after slice acquisition and section data processing of the point cloud model. The section polysemy line is sampled on average, and the normal vector of all sampling points is estimated. Finally, interpolation algorithm is used to connect the data points to obtain the space trajectory of spraying robot. In addition, the droplet trajectory model for electrostatic spray painting is established. The experimental results show that the method fully meets the requirements of coating thickness and improves the spraying efficiency and uniformity of coating.

Cellular phone data has been proven to be valuable in the analysis of residents’ travel patterns. Existing studies mostly identify the trip ends through rule-based or clustering algorithms. These methods largely depend on subjective experience and users’ communication behaviors. Moreover, limited by privacy policy, the accuracy of these methods is difficult to assess. In this paper, points of interest data is applied to supplement cellular phone data’s missing information generated by users’ behaviors. Specifically, a random forest model for trip end identification is proposed using multi-dimensional attributes. A field data acquisition test is designed and conducted with communication operators to implement synchronized cellular phone data and real trip information collection. The proposed identification approach is empirically evaluated with real trip information. Results show that the overall trip end detection precision and recall reach 95.2% and 88.7% with an average distance error of 269 m, and the time errors of the trip ends are less than 10 min. Compared with the rule-based approach, clustering algorithm, naive Bayes method, and support vector machine, the proposed method has better performance in accuracy and consistency.

Abstract. How to establish an effective method of large data analysis of geographic space-time and quickly and accurately find the hidden value behind geographic information has become a current research focus. Researchers have found that clustering analysis methods in data mining field can well mine knowledge and information hidden in complex and massive spatio-temporal data, and density-based clustering is one of the most important clustering methods.However, the traditional DBSCAN clustering algorithm has some drawbacks which are difficult to overcome in parameter selection. For example, the two important parameters of Eps neighborhood and MinPts density need to be set artificially. If the clustering results are reasonable, the more suitable parameters can not be selected according to the guiding principles of parameter setting of traditional DBSCAN clustering algorithm. It can not produce accurate clustering results.To solve the problem of misclassification and density sparsity caused by unreasonable parameter selection in DBSCAN clustering algorithm. In this paper, a DBSCAN-based data efficient density clustering method with improved parameter optimization is proposed. Its evaluation index function (Optimal Distance) is obtained by cycling k-clustering in turn, and the optimal solution is selected. The optimal k-value in k-clustering is used to cluster samples. Through mathematical and physical analysis, we can determine the appropriate parameters of Eps and MinPts. Finally, we can get clustering results by DBSCAN clustering. Experiments show that this method can select parameters reasonably for DBSCAN clustering, which proves the superiority of the method described in this paper.

<p><strong>Abstract.</strong> Image based dense point cloud creation is easy and low-cost application for three dimensional digitization of small and large scale objects and surfaces. It is especially attractive method for cultural heritage documentation. Reprojection error on conjugate keypoints indicates accuracy of the model and keypoint localisation in this method. In addition, sequential registration of the images from large scale historical buildings creates big cumulative registration error. Thus, accuracy of the model should be increased with the control points or loop close imaging. The registration of point point cloud model into the georeference system is performed using control points. In this study historical Sultan Selim Mosque that was built in sixteen century by Great Architect Sinan was modelled via photogrammetric dense point cloud. The reprojection error and number of keypoints were evaluated for different base/length ratio. In addition, georeferencing accuracy was evaluated with many configuration of control points with loop and without loop closure imaging.</p>


The proposed research work aims to perform the cluster analysis in the field of Precision Agriculture. The k-means technique is implemented to cluster the agriculture data. Selecting K value plays a major role in k-mean algorithm. Different techniques are used to identify the number of cluster value (k-value). Identification of suitable initial centroid has an important role in k-means algorithm. In general it will be selected randomly. In the proposed work to get the stability in the result Hybrid K-Mean clustering is used to identify the initial centroids. Since initial cluster centers are well defined Hybrid K-Means acts as a stable clustering technique.

Abstract. Point clouds have become one of the most popular sources of data in geospatial fields due to their availability and flexibility. However, because of the large amount of data and the limited resources of mobile devices, the use of point clouds in mobile Augmented Reality applications is still quite limited. Many current mobile AR applications of point clouds lack fluent interactions with users. In our paper, a cLoD (continuous level-of-detail) method is introduced to filter the number of points to be rendered considerably, together with an adaptive point size rendering strategy, thus improve the rendering performance and remove visual artifacts of mobile AR point cloud applications. Our method uses a cLoD model that has an ideal distribution over LoDs, with which can remove unnecessary points without sudden changes in density as present in the commonly used discrete level-of-detail approaches. Besides, camera position, orientation and distance from the camera to point cloud model is taken into consideration as well. With our method, good interactive visualization of point clouds can be realized in the mobile AR environment, with both nice visual quality and proper resource consumption.

In order to solve the clustering problem with incomplete and categorical matrix data sets, and considering the uncertain relationship between samples and clusters, a set pair k-modes clustering algorithm is proposed (MD-SPKM). Firstly, the correlation theory of set pair information granule is introduced into k-modes clustering. By improving the distance formula of traditional k-modes algorithm, a set pair distance measurement method between incomplete matrix samples is defined. Secondly, considering the uncertain relationship between the sample and the cluster, the definition of the intra-cluster average distance and the threshold calculation formula to determine whether the sample belongs to multiple clusters is given, and then the result of set pair clustering is formed, which includes positive region, boundary region and negative region. Finally, through the selected three data sets and four contrast algorithms for experimental evaluation, the experimental results show that the set pair k-modes clustering algorithm can effectively handle incomplete categorical matrix data sets, and has good clustering performance in Accuracy, Recall, ARI and NMI.
