A filling technique is described and illustrated by its application lo the problem of locating cylinders in range data ; lwo key steps in this process are filling ellipses lo partial data and filling lines to sets of three-dimensional points . The technique is specifically designed lo filter out gross errors before applying a smoothing procedure to compute a precise model. Such a technique is particularly applicable to computer vision tasks because the data in these tasks are often produced by local computations that are inherently unreliable.","doi":null,"url":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1981/119","pdf":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1981/0119.pdf","markdown":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1981/119.md","bibtex":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1981/bibtex/119","volume":{"slug":"1981","title":"Proceedings of the Seventh International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence","short_title":"IJCAI 1981","url":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1981/","year":1981,"location":"Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada","dates":"24-28 August 1981","editors":"Roger C.
