Most of the shape from shading (SFS) algorithms have been developed under the simplifying assumptions of a Lambertian surface, an orthographic projection, and a distant light sour...
This paper describes two new methods for the reconstruction of discrete surfaces from shading images. Both approaches are based on the reconstruction of a discrete surface by mixin...
Shape From Shading is known to be an ill-posed problem. We show in this paper that if we model the problem in a different way than it is usually done, more precisely by taking int...
Resolving local ambiguities is an important issue for shape from shading (SFS). Pixel ambiguities of SFS can be eliminated by propagation approaches. However, patch ambiguities st...
The popularity of current hand-held digital imaging devices such as camera phones, PDAs, camcorders has promoted the use of digital cameras to capture document images for daily in...
