State-of-the-art non uniform sampling approaches are discussed, and uniform sampling methods using Euler angles and quaternions are introduced. Moreover, since presented work is oriented to model building applications, it is not limited to general discrete methods to obtain uniform 3D rotations, but also from a continuous point of view in the case of Procrustes Analysis.", optnote="MILAB;HuPBA", optnote="exported from refbase (http://refbase.cvc.uab.es/show.php?record=2064), last updated on Wed, 12 Mar 2014 15:05:20 +0100", doi="10.4018/978-1-4666-2672-0.ch002", file=":http://refbase.cvc.uab.es/files/PIE2012.pdf:PDF" }
