Shining a Light on Human Pose: On Shadows, Shading and the Estimation of Pose and Shape
Strong lighting is common in natural scenes yet is often viewed as a nuisance for object pose estimation and tracking. In human shape and pose estimation, cast shadows can be conf...

Estimating human shape and pose from a single image
We describe a solution to the challenging problem of estimating human body shape from a single photograph or painting. Our approach computes shape and pose parameters of a 3D huma...

Motion-Based View-Invariant Articulated Motion Detection and Pose Estimation Using Sparse Point Features
Abstract. We present an approach for articulated motion detection and pose estimation that uses only motion information. To estimate the pose and viewpoint we introduce a novel mot...

Ecological optics of natural materials and light fields
The appearance of objects in scenes is determined by their shape, material properties and by the light field, and, in contradistinction, the appearance of those objects provides u...

Multiple-cue Illumination Estimation in Textured Scenes
In this paper, we present a method that integrates cues from shading, shadow and specular reflections for estimating directional illumination in a textured scene. Texture poses a ...
