In collaboration with Geometry Factory (CGAL project), we are recruiting a talented student developer for the upcoming Google Summer of Code 2020, on the following project.

Extend CGAL Point Cloud Registration to Multiple Objects.

Mentor(s): Nicolas Mellado and Simon Giraudot

Project description: Wrappers for global and local registration of point clouds were recently added in the CGAL library (GSoC 2019). In the current version, registration can only be performed between two point-clouds. The goal of this project is to extend the package to multiple point clouds, by implementing into OpenGR the approach described in the following paper: Global Registration of Multiple Point Clouds Using Semidefinite Programming, K. N. Chaudhury, Y. Khoo, and A. Singer, SIAM J. Optim., 25(1), 468–501. (34 pages).

Required Skills: C++, generic programming
