Abstract. In this paper, we show that it is possible to calibrate a camera using just a flat, textureless Lambertian surface and constant illumination. This is done using the effec...
Estimating the illumination and the reflectance properties
of an object surface from a sparse set of images is an
important but inherently ill-posed problem. The problem
becomes...

Photometric stereo algorithms use a Lambertian reflectance model with a varying albedo field and involve the appearances of only one object. This paper extends photometric stereo a...

Illumination invariance remains the most researched, yet the most challenging aspect of automatic face recognition. In this paper we propose a novel, general recognition framework...
