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...
In augmented virtuality which virtualizes real objects to construct a mixed reality environment, it is important to estimate object surface reflectance properties to render object...
—Image-based computation of a 3D map for an indoor environment is a very challenging task, but also a useful step for vision-based navigation and path planning for autonomous sys...
We present a new shape-from-distortion framework for recovering specular (reflective/refractive) surfaces. While most existing approaches rely on accurate correspondences between 2...
Rapidly simulating global illumination, including diffuse and glossy light transport is a very difficult problem. Finite element or radiosity approaches can achieve interactive si...
