We address the problem of recovering shape, albedo, and illumination from a single grayscale image of an object, using shading as our primary cue. Because this problem is fundamen...
We present a new shape-from-distortion framework for recovering specular (reflective/refractive) surfaces. While most existing approaches rely on accurate correspondences between 2...
The output from a color imaging sensor, or apparent color, can change considerably due to illumination conditions and scene geometry changes. In this work we take into account the...
Cast shadows produce troublesome effects for video surveillance systems, typically for object tracking from a fixed viewpoint, since it yields appearance variations of objects dep...

In this paper we consider the problem of factoring illumination and texture from a pair of images of a diffuse object of known geometry. This problem arises frequently in 3D photo...
