The problem of estimating an illumination distribution from images is called inverse lighting. For inverse lighting, three approaches have been developed based on specular reflect...
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...
A framework for photo-realistic view-dependent image synthesis of a shiny object from a sparse set of images and a geometric model is proposed. Each image is aligned with the 3D m...
Illumination, pose variations, disguises, aging effects and expression variations are some of the key factors that affect the performance of face recognition systems. Face recogni...

This paper introduces a new scalable technique for approximating indirect illumination in fully dynamic scenes for real-time applications, such as video games. We use lattices and...
