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...
Abstract. A new approach is proposed to recover the relative magnitude of Gaussian curvature from three shading images using neural network. Under the assumption that the test obje...
The Gauss map projects surface normals to a unit sphere, providing a powerful visualization of the geometry of a graphical object. It can be used to predict visual events caused b...

While scanning pages from a thick, bound book, there are two sources of distortion in the document images: 1) shade along the book `spine', and 2) warping of the book surface...
We consider the problem of reconstructing a smooth surface under constraints that have discrete ambiguities. These problems arise in areas such as shape from texture, shape from sh...
