Shape from stereo: a systematic approach using quadratic surfaces.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We used quadratic shapes in several psychophysical shape-from-stereo tasks. The shapes were elegantly represented in a 2-D parameter space by the scale-independent shape index and the scale-dependent curvedness. Using random-dot stereograms to depict the surfaces, we found that the shape of hyperbolic surfaces is slightly more difficult to recognize than the shape of elliptic surfaces. We found that curvedness (and indirectly, scale) has little or no influence on shape recognition.

3D Reconstruction Using Shape from Photometric Stereo and Contours
In this work, we further discuss an approach to 3D shape recovery by combining photometric stereo and shape from contours methods. Surfaces recovered by photometric stereo are aligned, adjusted and merged according to a preliminary 3D model obtained by shape from contours. Comparisons are conducted to evaluate the performances of different methods. It has been found that the proposed combinatio...
متن کاملDifferential Geometric Consistency Extends Stereo to Curved Surfaces
Traditional stereo algorithms implicitly use the frontal parallel plane assumption when exploiting contextual information, since the smoothness prior biases towards constant disparity (depth) over a neighborhood. For curved surfaces these algorithms introduce systematic errors to the matching process. These errors are non-negligible for detailed geometric modeling of natural objects (e.g. a hum...
متن کاملNew Pseudo-CT Generation Approach from Magnetic Resonance Imaging using a Local Texture Descriptor
Background: One of the challenges of PET/MRI combined systems is to derive an attenuation map to correct the PET image. For that, the pseudo-CT image could be used to correct the attenuation. Until now, most existing scientific researches construct this pseudo-CT image using the registration techniques. However, these techniques suffer from the local minima of the non-rigid deformation energy f...
متن کاملShape from Shading Using Discrete Polynomials
Given a monocular image, we propose a new method for extracting the shape of objects from the pixel intensities. The problem of solving the partial differential equation corresponding to the reflectance map is reduced to that of solving a finite set of nonlinear algebraic equations. The method involves patchwise approximation of the surfaces in the scene by discrete polynomials. Distinctive fea...
متن کاملSegmentation of Rough Surfaces using Reflectance
The segmentation of rough surfaces using their reflectance properties is considered. We present a technique to estimate the orientation of surface facets whose reflectance functions are unknown. The reflectance characteristics of each facet are estimated individually allowing this technique to be applied to non-homogeneous surfaces. Non-Lambertian components are attenuated allowing shape estima...
