from 3D point clouds

Using an RANSAC-based fitting algorithm, we were able to discover objects of certain shapes in a scene of point cloud.

Random sample consensus (RANSAC)

The basic idea is to iteratively fit many models to different subsets of the data.
The model which is mostly agreed will eventually be selected.
