Cast shadows produce troublesome effects for video surveillance systems, typically for object tracking from a fixed viewpoint, since it yields appearance variations of objects dep...

The computation of soft shadows created by area light sources is a well-known problem in computer graphics. Due to the complexity of the problem, soft shadows commonly are generat...
We presen t a multiview method for the computation of object shape and re ectance characteristics based on the integration of shape from shading (SFS) and stereo, for nonconstan t...

In this work we investigate an inverse geometry problem. Given a light source, a diffuse plane and a caustic image, how must a geometric object look like (transmissive or reflect...
Edge detection and image segmentation algorithms usually operate on an image to extract geometrical information based on pixel colors. For ray-traced images, the presence of geomet...
