In this paper, a novel framework for the recovery of 3D surfaces of faces from single images is developed. The underlying principle is shape from recognition, i.e. the idea that p...
An optical diffuser is an element that scatters light and is commonly used to soften or shape illumination. In this paper, we propose a novel depth estimation method that places a ...
Acquiring transparent, refractive objects is challenging as these kinds of objects can only be observed by analyzing the distortion of reference background patterns. We present a ...

We relax the long-held and problematic assumption in shape-from-shading (SFS) that albedo must be uniform or known, and address the problem of “shape and albedo from shading” ...
See www.research.microsoft.com/jojic/epitome.htm for videos, comparisons and applications. We present novel simple appearance and shape models that we call epitomes. The epitome o...
