The proposed method learns from the most informative objects which are marked by the user, and then creates a boundary separating the relevant models from irrelevant ones. What it needs is only a small number of 3D models labelled by the user. It can grasp the user＇s semantic knowledge rapidly and accurately. Experimental results showed that the proposed algorithm significantly improves the retrieval effectiveness. Compared with four state-of-the-art query refinement schemes for 3D model retrieval, it provides superior retrieval performance after no more than two rounds of relevance feedback.展开更多

It aims at producing a variety of products with virtually no time loses to change over from one part to the next. In this paper, the Machining Process Simulator GMPS is introduced, which can be used as a supported environment for machining process. It can be executed off-line or on-line in manufacturing systems in order to predict the collisions of tool with machined workpieces, fixtures or pallets. First, the functional model of GMPS is described, then adopted critical techniques in the simulator are introduced. Finally, an application of GMPS in CIMS ERC of China is presented.展开更多

SVMs have been widely explored for images, audio, and video watermarking but to date the potential of SVMs has not been explored in the 3D watermarking domain. The proposed approach utilizes SVM as a binary classifier for the selection of vertices for watermark embedding. The SVM is trained with feature vectors derived from the angular difference between the eigen normal and surface normals of a 1-ring neighborhood of vertices taken from normalized 3D mesh models. The SVM learns to classify vertices as appropriate or inappropriate candidates for modification in order to accommodate the watermark. Experimental results verify that the proposed algorithm is imperceptible and robust against attacks such as mesh smoothing, cropping and noise addition.展开更多
