Automatic Salient Object Extraction with Contextual Cue
We present a method for automatically extracting salient object from a single image, which is cast in an energy minimization framework. Unlike most previous methods that only leve...

Self-Calibrating Depth from Refraction
In this paper, we introduce a novel method for depth acquisition based on refraction of light. A scene is captured twice by a fixed perspective camera, with the first image capt...

Refractive Shape from Light Field Distortion
Acquiring transparent, refractive objects is challenging as these kinds of objects can only be observed by analyzing the distortion of reference background patterns. We present a ...

Multi-View 3D Reconstruction for Scenes under the Refractive Plane with Known Vertical Direction
Images taken from scenes under water suffer distortion due to refraction. While refraction causes magnification with mild distortion on the observed images, severe distortions in...

Multiplexed Illumination for Scene Recovery in the Presence of Global Illumination
Global illumination effects such as inter-reflections and subsurface scattering result in systematic, and often significant errors in scene recovery using active illumination. R...
