The appearance of a particular object depends on both the viewpoint from which it is observed and the light sources by which it is illuminated. If the appearance of two objects is...
We consider the problem of reconstructing the shape of a surface with an arbitrary, spatially varying isotropic bidirectional reflectance distribution function (BRDF), and introdu...
This paper presents a technique for determining an object's shape based on the similarity of radiance changes observed at points on its surface under varying illumination. To...
This paper describes a new method to recover the sign of the local Gaussian curvature at each point on the visible surface of a 3-D object. Multiple (p > 3) shaded images are a...

An object model for computer graphics applications should contain two aspects of information: shape and reflectance properties of the object. A number of techniques have been deve...
