The visual hull relates the shape of an object to its silhouettes. This paper develops the theory of the visual hull of piecewise smooth objects, as those used in CAD applications...
This paper presents a method for computing the visual hull that is based on two novel representations: the rim mesh, which describes the connectivity of contour generators on the ...
This paper presents a new surface reconstruction method that extends previous carving methods for non-Lambertian objects by integrating the smoothness and image information of dif...
This paper addresses the problem of estimating the 3D shape of a smooth textureless solid from multiple images acquired under orthographic projection from unknown and unconstrained...
