Using cloud shadows to infer scene structure and camera calibration
We explore the use of clouds as a form of structured lighting to capture the 3D structure of outdoor scenes observed over time from a static camera. We derive two cues that relate ...

Detecting and Segmenting Un-occluded Items by Actively Casting Shadows
We present a simple and practical approach for segmenting un-occluded items in a scene by actively casting shadows. By ’items’, we refer to objects (or part of objects) enclose...

A Fourier Theory for Cast Shadows
—Cast shadows can be significant in many computer vision applications, such as lighting-insensitive recognition and surface reconstruction. Nevertheless, most algorithms neglect ...

Refinement of Digital Elevation Models from Shadowing Cues
In this paper we derive formal constraints relating terrain elevation and observed cast shadows. We show how an optimisation framework can be used to refine surface estimates usin...

Capacity and Fairness of MIMO Broadcast Algorithms in Shadow Fading Environments
Abstract— For MIMO broadcast systems the effects of shadowing on the channel capacity and the fairness of the system in sharing the resources amongst multiple users are important...
