Shape-from-silhouettes is a widely adopted approach to compute accurate 3D reconstructions of people or objects in a multi-camera environment. However, such algorithms are traditionally very sensitive to errors in the silhouettes due to imperfect foreground-background estimation or occluding objects appearing in front of the object of interest. We propose a novel algorithm that is able to still provide high quality reconstruction from incomplete silhouettes. At the core of the method is the partitioning of reconstruction space in cells, i.e. regions with uniform camera and silhouette coverage properties. A set of rules is proposed to iteratively add cells to the reconstruction based on their potential to explain discrepancies between silhouettes in different cameras. Experimental analysis shows significantly improved F1-scores over standard leave-M-out reconstruction techniques.
