Generating compact polygonal models from point clouds is a key problem in 3D vision and computer graphics. However, due to inherent limitations of LiDAR scanning (e.g. range constraints and occlusions), critical scene information is often missing, leading to degraded reconstruction accuracy. To address this, we propose a plane assembling strategy that effectively recovers missing details while maintaining model compactness. We classify all the planes extracted from the scene into three categories: highly visible, barely visible, and invisible. The invisible planes, which are recovered by scene structure analysis, indicate the missing details. The three types of planes correspond to the three growth priorities. Each plane grows according to the priority level, and the space is partitioned progressively, namely, the hierarchical partition. Subsequently, we generate a watertight polygonal mesh from the partition via a min-cut-based optimization. Finally, comparisons on public datasets show the effectiveness and superiority of our method against mainstream approaches. The project page is available at https://hsr-3dv.github.io/.

This article proposes a general optimization framework for solving hand-eye calibration problem. Unlike traditional methods, an iterative algorithm based on Lie algebra that achieves approximately global optimal solutions is developed. During the optimization process, the method strictly preserves the structural constraints of the calibration parameters and enables synchronized updates between calibration parameters. Recognizing that data used in real-word hand-eye calibration often contain uncertainty, especially in over-loading and large workspace industrial robot scenarios, which can significantly degrade accuracy, and accurately modeling such uncertainty is inherently difficult, this article avoids explicit uncertainty modeling. Instead, an uncertainty metric to evaluate the relative uncertainty between data sources is introduced and used to dynamically refine the iterative process. To further enhance convergence efficiency, an effective initial solution generation method that improves overall stability and accuracy is designed. Numerical simulations and real-world experiments validate the effectiveness of the proposed approach, and in synthetic datasets, the proposed approach improves the estimation accuracy by at least 67\% under high-uncertainty conditions compared with the existing methods.
