    摘要: A technique for estimating a whole object surface area and volume of a micro-scale three-dimensional model with a partially visible surface includes receiving a single-view stereoscopic image of an object of interest and an unconstrained three-dimensional point cloud of the object, generating a constrained three-dimensional point cloud using the image, the unconstrained three-dimensional point cloud, and a digital elevation model (DEM) of the object generated from the image, generating, using the constrained three-dimensional point cloud, a three-dimensional mesh representing an estimate of the surface of the object, calculating a partial surface area and/or partial volume of the object using the three-dimensional mesh, estimating an extent of a visible surface of the object, and calculating a whole surface area and/or a whole volume of the object based on the partial surface area of the object and the estimated extent of the visible surface of the object.
