In this paper, we propose a new method to construct an edge-preserving filter which has very similar response to the bilateral filter. The bilateral filter is a normalized convolu...
Illuminant estimation from shadows typically relies on accurate segmentation of the shadows and knowledge of exact 3D geometry, while shadow estimation is difficult in the presen...
