According to one or more embodiments, a system includes a scanner device configured to capture a set of point clouds comprising 3D points. The system further includes one or more processors that detect, during the capture of the set of point clouds, at least one first anchor object in a first part of a first point cloud. The first part belongs to a first time interval centered at time t1. A second anchor object is detected in a second part of the first point cloud, the second part belonging to second time interval centered at time t2. Further, at least one correspondence is identified between the first anchor object and the second anchor object. The first part of the first point cloud is aligned with the second part of the first point cloud based on the at least one correspondence between the first anchor object and the second anchor object.

The present invention relates to a computer-implemented method, a computer program product, and a server for positioning a structural element in a 2D section of a CAD structure. The invention is characterized in that at least two distances, each distance in between an alignment line of the structural element and a parallel reference line of the 2D section, are displayed on a user visualization means and dynamically updated as the location of the structural element within the 2D section is changed. In a preferred embodiment, the reference lines are dynamically chosen based on the location of the structural element within the 2D section.

The present disclosure relates to a method for use in adaptive radiotherapy and a treatment planning device. The method may comprise accessing a first medical image and a second medical image that represent a region of interest of a patient at different times. Each medical image is segmented into a target region and at least one non-target region. The method may further comprise accessing a deformation vector field including a plurality of vectors, wherein each vector defines a geometric transformation to map a respective voxel in the first medical image to a corresponding voxel in the second medical image. The method may further comprise generating a modified deformation vector field by: identifying a first vector in the deformation vector field that maps a voxel in the first medical image to a voxel that is in a non-target region in the second medical image; and determining whether the first vector causes a distance between the mapped voxel and the target region to increase and, if so, reducing the magnitude of the first vector. The method may further comprise post-processing the modified deformation vector field to compensate for changes in the shape or size of the target region.

Automated three-dimensional (3D) building model estimation is disclosed. In an embodiment, a method comprises: obtaining, using one or more processors, an aerial image of a building based on an input address; obtaining, using the one or more processors, three-dimensional (3D) data containing the building based on the input address; pre-processing the aerial image and 3D data; reconstructing, using the one or more processors, a 3D building model from the pre-processed image and 3D data, the reconstructing including: predicting, using instance segmentation, a mask for each roof face; converting each roof face into a two-dimensional (2D) polygon; and projecting each 2D polygon into a 3D polygon representing the 3D building model.

A set of input images from satellites (or other remote sensors) can be orthorectified and stitched together to create a mosaic. If the resulting mosaic is not of suitable quality, the input images can be adjusted and the processes of orthorectifying and creating the mosaic can be repeated. However, orthorectifying and creating the mosaic uses a large amount of computational resources and takes a lot of time. Therefore, performing numerous iterations is expensive and sometimes not practical. To overcome these issues, it is proposed to generate an indication of accuracy of the resulting mosaic prior to orthorectifying and creating the mosaic by accessing a set of points in the plurality of input images, projecting the points to a model, determining residuals for the projected points, and generating the indication of accuracy of the orthorectified mosaic based on the determined residuals.
