Managing large scale UNIX networks so that users can use resources on multiple systems is traditionally performed using NIS, NFS, and DNS. Proper use of these tools requires exact...
We study the problem of estimating the illuminant's direction from images of textured surfaces. Given an isotropic, Gaussian random surface with constant albedo, Koenderink an...
