On Learning Shapes from Shades
نویسندگان
چکیده
Shape from Shading (SFS) is one of the most extensively studied problems in Computer Vision. However, most of the approaches only deal with Lambertian or other specific shading models, and are hence limited in their applicability to real images. In this contribution we propose a general unified framework in which it is possible to incorporate different illumination and shading models. We effectively deal with the usual multiple local minima problem of the SFS domain through some minimal user interactions. Features such as pyramidal refinement, parallelizability of solution evolution, global smoothness of solution give our framework a definite edge over most other existing SFS schemes. Results on real images demonstrate the efficacy of our approach.

Relationship between Color and Translucency of Multishaded Dental Composite Resins
The aim of the present study was to compare the translucency of different shades of two highly aesthetic multilayered restorative composite resins. In total nine shades from Esthet.X and ten shades from Filtek Supreme composite resins were chosen. Discs of each shade were prepared (N = 3) and light-cured. Total and diffuse transmittance values for each sample were measured. Statistical analysis...
متن کاملA Q-learning Based Continuous Tuning of Fuzzy Wall Tracking
A simple easy to implement algorithm is proposed to address wall tracking task of an autonomous robot. The robot should navigate in unknown environments, find the nearest wall, and track it solely based on locally sensed data. The proposed method benefits from coupling fuzzy logic and Q-learning to meet requirements of autonomous navigations. Fuzzy if-then rules provide a reliable decision maki...

متن کاملde Kooning's late colours and forms: dementia, creativity, and the healing power of art.
A tangle of forms and colours passes before us (figure 1). A white background contains long sinuous brush strokes. Primary colours-yellow, red, and blue-mix with hues of oranges and greens. The yellow shades provide depth. The images seem to move all over the canvas. The red lines emerge from the white background, swirl, some mingle with the others, still others immediately vanish. On the left,...
