An optical diffuser is an element that scatters light and is commonly used to soften or shape illumination. In this paper, we propose a novel depth estimation method that places a ...
Defocus can be modeled as a diffusion process and represented mathematically using the heat equation, where image blur corresponds to the diffusion of heat. This analogy can be ext...

Following the phenomenological approach of gestaltists, sparse monocular depth cues such as T- and X-junctions and the local convexity are crucial to identify the shape and depth ...
Diffusion has been used extensively in computer vision. Most common applications of diffusion have been in low level vision problems like segmentation and edge detection. In this ...
In the area of depth estimation from images an interesting approach has been structure recovery from defocus cue. Towards this end, there have been a number of approaches [4, 6]. ...
