We present a method for Perceptual Grouping in Computer Vision for
the inference of structure from sparse, noisy data in 2-D and 3-D.
Over the past few years, we have developed a unified Tensor Based framework
to formalize this problem. The method is not iterative, uses no hard thresholds,
and there is a single free parameter. We have successfully demonstrated
the approach on different early vision tasks and technical applications.

There are three free software packages (beta-version) available. The 2D
and 3D tensor voting systems, and the ViewWorld program for visualization.
ViewWorld accepts input files accepted, and outputs generated by the two
systems.
