FitPlaneToSurface_M


Approximates points of the input surface with a plane using selected M-estimator for outlier suppression.

Name Type Range Description
inSurface Surface Input surface
inRoi Region* Region of interest
inOutlierSuppression MEstimator Selects a method for ignoring points being much different from the rest
inClippingFactor Real 0.675 - 6.0 Multitude of standard deviation within which points are considered inliers
inIterationCount Integer 0 - Number of iterations of outlier suppressing algorithm
inInitialPlane Plane3D* Initial approximation (if available)
outPlane Plane3D Fitted plane
outInliers Point3DArray Points matching the computed plane
outDistances RealArray Distances of the input points to a resulting plane
outSignedDistanceSum Real Sum of signed distances of the input points to a resulting plane
outDistanceSum Real Sum of distances of the input points to a resulting plane
outSquaredDistances RealArray Squared distances of the input points to a resulting plane
outSquaredDistanceSum Real Sum of squared distances of the input points to a resulting plane

Applications

Finding a locally optimal plane. Good enough when the number of outliers is small.
