— In this paper, we propose an original approach to control camera position and/or lighting conditions in an environment using image gradient information. Our goal is to ensure a...
We explore the use of clouds as a form of structured lighting to capture the 3D structure of outdoor scenes observed over time from a static camera. We derive two cues that relate ...
This paper addresses the problem of shadow extraction from a single image of a complex natural scene. No simplifying assumption on the camera and the light source other than the L...
We introduce an efficient method for recovering the camera parameters automatically from the cast shadows of two 3D points observed over time. Compared to previous related work, o...
We present a novel application where, using only three points from the shadow trajectory of an object, one can accurately determine the geo-location of the camera, up to a longitu...
