Detailed Description

template<typename PointT>
class pcl::PointRepresentation< PointT >

PointRepresentation provides a set of methods for converting a point structs/object into an n-dimensional vector.

Note
This is an abstract class. Subclasses must set nr_dimensions_ to the appropriate value in the constructor and provide an implementation of the pure virtual copyToFloatArray method.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

~PointRepresentation()

template<typename PointT >
virtual pcl::PointRepresentation< PointT >::~PointRepresentation ( )
virtualdefault

Empty destructor.

Member Function Documentation

copyToFloatArray()

template<typename PointT >
virtual void pcl::PointRepresentation< PointT >::copyToFloatArray ( const PointT & p,
float * out
) const
pure virtual

Copy point data from input point to a float array.

This method must be overridden in all subclasses.

Parameters
[in] p The input point
[out] out A pointer to a float array.

Implemented in pcl::DefaultFeatureRepresentation< VFHSignature308 >, pcl::DefaultPointRepresentation< UniqueShapeContext1960 >, pcl::DefaultPointRepresentation< SHOT352 >, pcl::DefaultPointRepresentation< SHOT1344 >, pcl::DefaultPointRepresentation< ShapeContext1980 >, pcl::DefaultPointRepresentation< PPFSignature >, pcl::DefaultFeatureRepresentation< PPFSignature >, pcl::GeneralizedIterativeClosestPoint6D::MyPointRepresentation, pcl::DefaultPointRepresentation< PointXYZI >, pcl::DefaultPointRepresentation< PointXYZ >, pcl::registration::TransformationValidationEuclidean< PointSource, PointTarget, Scalar >::MyPointRepresentation, pcl::DefaultPointRepresentation< PointNormal >, pcl::DefaultFeatureRepresentation< PointDefault >, pcl::DefaultPointRepresentation< PointDefault >, pcl::CustomPointRepresentation< PointDefault >, pcl::DefaultFeatureRepresentation< PFHSignature125 >, pcl::DefaultFeatureRepresentation< PFHRGBSignature250 >, pcl::DefaultFeatureRepresentation< NormalBasedSignature12 >, pcl::DefaultPointRepresentation< Narf36 >, pcl::DefaultFeatureRepresentation< GASDSignature984 >, pcl::DefaultFeatureRepresentation< GASDSignature7992 >, pcl::DefaultFeatureRepresentation< GASDSignature512 >, and pcl::DefaultFeatureRepresentation< FPFHSignature33 >.

getNumberOfDimensions()

template<typename PointT >
int pcl::PointRepresentation< PointT >::getNumberOfDimensions ( ) const
inline

Return the number of dimensions in the point's vector representation.

Definition at line 172 of file point_representation.h.

isTrivial()

template<typename PointT >
bool pcl::PointRepresentation< PointT >::isTrivial ( ) const
inline

Returns whether this point representation is trivial.

It is trivial if and only if the following conditions hold:

  • the relevant data consists only of float values
  • the vectorize operation directly copies the first nr_dimensions_ elements of PointT to the out array
  • sizeof(PointT) is a multiple of sizeof(float) In short, a trivial point representation converts the input point to a float array that is the same as if the point was reinterpret_casted to a float array of length nr_dimensions_ .

Definition at line 98 of file point_representation.h.

isValid()

template<typename PointT >
virtual bool pcl::PointRepresentation< PointT >::isValid ( const PointT & p ) const
inlinevirtual

Verify that the input point is valid.

Parameters
p The point to validate

Definition at line 104 of file point_representation.h.

setRescaleValues()

template<typename PointT >
void pcl::PointRepresentation< PointT >::setRescaleValues ( const float * rescale_array )
inline

Set the rescale values to use when vectorizing points.

Parameters
[in] rescale_array The array/vector of rescale values. Can be of any type that implements the [] operator.

Definition at line 165 of file point_representation.h.

vectorize()

template<typename PointT >
template<typename OutputType >
void pcl::PointRepresentation< PointT >::vectorize ( const PointT & p,
OutputType & out
) const
inline

Convert input point into a vector representation, rescaling by alpha.

Parameters
[in] p the input point
[out] out The output vector. Can be of any type that implements the [] operator.

Definition at line 144 of file point_representation.h.

Member Data Documentation

alpha_

template<typename PointT >
std::vector<float> pcl::PointRepresentation< PointT >::alpha_
protected

A vector containing the rescale factor to apply to each dimension.

Definition at line 65 of file point_representation.h.

Referenced by pcl::PointRepresentation< SHOT1344 >::isTrivial(), pcl::PointRepresentation< SHOT1344 >::setRescaleValues(), and pcl::PointRepresentation< SHOT1344 >::vectorize().

nr_dimensions_

template<typename PointT >
int pcl::PointRepresentation< PointT >::nr_dimensions_ = 0
protected

trivial_

template<typename PointT >
bool pcl::PointRepresentation< PointT >::trivial_ = false
protected

Indicates whether this point representation is trivial.

It is trivial if and only if the following conditions hold:

  • the relevant data consists only of float values
  • the vectorize operation directly copies the first nr_dimensions_ elements of PointT to the out array
  • sizeof(PointT) is a multiple of sizeof(float) In short, a trivial point representation converts the input point to a float array that is the same as if the point was reinterpret_casted to a float array of length nr_dimensions_ . This value says that this representation can be trivial; it is only trivial if setRescaleValues() has not been set.
