The perception of doubly curved surfaces from intersecting contours.
The perception of a three-dimensional (3-D) surface shape can be inferred from a 2-D image of two intersecting curves. Three experiments are reported in which we examined a possible method for determining the surface shape as a function of the geometry at the point of intersection. The method involves a two-step process in which the tangents to the two curves determine a skewed Cartesian coordi...
متن کاملThe perception of doubly curved surfaces from anisotropic textures.
Most existing computational models of the visual perception of three-dimensional shape from texture are based on assumed constraints about how texture is distributed on visible surfaces. The research described in the present article was designed to investigate how violations of these assumptions influence human perception. Observers were presented with images of smoothly curved surfaces depicte...
متن کاملOptimal development of doubly curved surfaces
This paper presents algorithms for optimal development (flattening) of a smooth continuous curved surface embedded in three-dimensional space into a planar shape. The development process is modeled by in-plane strain (stretching) from the curved surface to its planar development. The distribution of the appropriate minimum strain field is obtained by solving a constrained nonlinear programming ...
متن کاملAffine Reconstruction of Curved Surfaces from Uncalibrated Views of Apparent Contours
in this paper, we consider uncaiibrated reconstruction of curved surfaces from apparent contours. Since apparent contours are not fixed features (viewpoint independent), we cannot directly apply the recent resuits of the uncaiibrated reconstruction from fixed features. We show that, nonetheless, curved surfaces can be reconstructed up to an affine ambiguity from their apparent contours viewed f...
متن کاملThe perception of length on curved and flat surfaces.
In three experiments, observers judged the apparent extents of spatial intervals along the surface of a curved cylinder or a flat plane that was binocularly viewed in a natural, indoor environment. The observers' judgments of surface lengths were precise and reliable but were also inaccurate and subject to relatively large constant errors. These distortions differed among the observers, but the...
