The shape of an object may be estimated by observing the shadows on its surface. We present a method that is robust with respect to a conservative classification of shadow regions...

It is common in object recognition algorithms based on viewpoint consistency to find object poses that align many of the object features with features extracted from a search imag...
Model-based image recognition requires a general model of the object that should be detected in an image. In many applications such models are not known a-priori instead of they mu...
Abstract. Cast shadows are an informative cue to the shape of objects. They are particularly valuable for discovering object’s concavities which are not available from other cues...

Both our visual and haptic systems contribute to the perception of the three dimensional world, especially the proximal perception of objects. The interaction of these systems has...
