Patent attributes
Various of the disclosed embodiments present systems and methods for distinguishing portions of a virtual model associated with a clothing article from portions of the virtual model not associated with the clothing article. Some embodiments facilitate quick and effective separation by employing a feature vector structure conducive to separation by a linear classifier. Such efficient separation may be especially beneficial in applications requiring the rapid scanning of large quantities of clothing while retaining high-fidelity representations of the clothing's geometry. Some embodiments further accommodate artist participation in the filtering process as well as scanning of articles from a variety of orientations and with a variety of supporting structures.
