“…Finally, our experiments show that the proposed algorithm with a robust cost function has comparable computation time to Su et al [1] and comparable accuracy to Kwon et al [2]. Using the method in [2], we can estimate the 3D sphere centre in each depth image. The 3D sphere centre of I (q) i is denoted by C (q) i , whose X, Y, and Z coordinates are denoted by C (q) i, X , C (q) i, Y , and C (q) i, Z , respectively.…”
