This research addresses the challenging problem of restoring 3D surface models of microscopic objects from 2D images obtained through Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). By applying computer vision techniques and differential evolution algorithms, we optimize the geometric and positional parameters to generate realistic 3D models. The study includes detailed methods for visualizing structures such as Tapetal cells and Diatoms, allowing for rotation and depth interpretation. Our objective is to enhance 3D technology for microscopic analysis, providing valuable insights into biological structures.

Computer vision exposes a great ability to restore the geometry of the scene by solving the inversion problem going from 2D to 3D. Objectives To bring 3D technology for microscopic objects. To create realistic anatomic shape from microscopic objects. To allow rotation and depth for further interpretation of microscopic objects.
We normally initialize the 3D points and relative poses with some error thresholds. The latter process is a minimization routine that optimizes the 3D geometry information and rotation/translation parameters together. Algorithm and Approach • We took Differential Evolution into account to solve this optimization problem.
