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...

A fast shadow algorithm for area light sources using backprojection
The fast identification of shadow regions due to area light sources is necessary for realistic rendering and for discontinuity meshing for global illumination. A new shadow-determ...

Spherical Harmonics vs. Haar Wavelets: Basis for Recovering Illumination from Cast Shadows
The problem of estimating an illumination distribution from images is called inverse lighting. For inverse lighting, three approaches have been developed based on specular reflect...
