Example usage:

ETH3DMultiViewEvaluation --reconstruction_ply_path reconstruction.ply \
                         --ground_truth_mlp_path scan_alignment.mlp \
                         --tolerances 0.01,0.02,0.05,0.1,0.2,0.5

Description of required program arguments:

• --reconstruction_ply_path: Path to the reconstructed point cloud (as PLY).
• --ground_truth_mlp_path: Path to the MeshLab project file which defines the poses of the ground truth laser scan files.
• --tolerances: Comma-separated list of tolerance values to evaluate with.

Description of optional program arguments:

• --voxel_size (default 0.01): Size of voxels for normalising scores per volume.
• --beam_start_radius_meters (default 0.5 * 0.00225): Size of beam at the laser scanner origin for free-space modeling.
• --beam_divergence_halfangle_deg (default 0.011): Beam divergence for free-space modeling.
• --completeness_cloud_output_path (default ""): If set to a path, completeness visualizations for each tolerance value are written to <path>.tolerance_<tolerance>.ply.
• --accuracy_cloud_output_path (default ""): If set to a path, accuracy visualizations for each tolerance value are written to <path>.tolerance_<tolerance>.ply.
