Abstract: Model-based recognition usually begs the question of generation of suitable object models. Our solid models are face/edge/vertex representations where the faces form 2-cycle(s) properly enclosing a region of 3-D space. These models facilitate generation of rendered images, computing numeric features for the object, and answering questions such as feature visibility for a given orientation. In this paper, a process for the generation of solid models from 2-D images, range images, or line drawings is described. Examples are provided.!
