Geometric Solution of Shape from Shading Problem
نویسندگان
چکیده
A new geometrical approach in solving the shape from shading problem of Lambertian model is discussed. It is shown, through the global and local geometrical analysis, that the problem is bound by two local constraints. The C 1 continuous analytic solution is derived. The solution has two degrees of freedom due to the non-linearity of the problem. This shows the existence and the non-uniqueness of the solution.

A Cooperative Algorithm for Determining Surface Orientation from a Single View
This paper addresses the problem of determining local surface orientation from the intensity information contained in a single monocular view. It represents another look at the problem of obtaining shape from shading information. This problem was first formulated by as the solution of first-order non-linear partial differential equations. It was subsequently reformulated by <Horn 19...
متن کاملPhotometric and Geometric Restoration of Document Images Using Inpainting and Shape-from-Shading
The popularity of current hand-held digital imaging devices such as camera phones, PDAs, camcorders has promoted the use of digital cameras to capture document images for daily information recording purpose. However, the captured images often contain photometric and geometric distortions when the documents are of non-planar shapes, which cause significant problems to various document image anal...
متن کاملShape - from - shading on a cloudy day
In the classical shape-from-shading model, surface luminance depends primarily on the unit surface normal. However, under diffuse lighting conditions, such as the sky on a cloudy day, luminance depends primarily on the amount of sky that is visible from each surface element, with surface normal of secondary importance. This claim is formalized in terms of a dominating sky principle and a surfac...

متن کاملThe Lawn-Mowing Algorithm for noisy gradient vector elds
In this paper we analyze a speci c problem within the context of recovering the geometric shape of an unknown surface frommultiple noisy shading patterns generated by consecutive parallel illuminations by di erent light-sources. Shading-based single-view shape recovery in computer vision often leads to vector elds (i.e. estimated surface normals) which have to be integrated for calculations of ...
