Recently, methods for estimating 3D scene geometry or absolute scene depth information from 2D image content have been proposed. However, general applicability of these methods in...
We investigate the feasibility of reconstructing an arbitrarily-shaped specular scene (refractive or mirror-like) from one or more viewpoints. By reducing shape recovery to the pr...
This paper describes a new method for estimating the illumination distribution of a real scene from a radiance distribution inside shadows cast by an object in the scene. First, t...
In this paper, we propose a novel method to simultaneously and accurately estimate the 3D shape and 3D motion of a dynamic scene from multiple-viewpoint calibrated videos. We follo...
Occlusions provide critical cues about the 3D structure of man-made and natural scenes. We present a mathematical framework and algorithm to detect and localize occlusions in image...
