Solution Overview

Problem

Existing methods for constructing three-dimensional scene models require high software and hardware resources and are inefficient due to errors in combining scene materials with different coordinate parameters, making them difficult for general users to implement effectively.

Innovation Solution

A two-stage classification method that groups scene materials by position parameters and then by similarity, allowing for the establishment and combination of sub-models into position models, which are subsequently integrated into a scene model, reducing operational time and errors.
