Optimal Alignment of 3D Data for Spatial Discretization
—We present an algorithm that finds the rotation which best aligns a given configuration of directions on an unsorted set of directions. Using a cost function that we derive in...

Simulating room impulse responses for spherical microphone arrays
A method is proposed for simulating the sound pressure signals on a spherical microphone array in a reverberant enclosure. The method employs spherical harmonic decomposition and ...

Conformal spherical representation of 3D genus-zero meshes
This paper describes an approach of representing 3D shape by using a set of invariant Spherical Harmonic (SH) coefficients after conformal mapping. Specifically, a genus-zero 3D ...

Analytic PCA Construction for Theoretical Analysis of Lighting Variability in Images of a Lambertian Object
We analyze theoretically the subspace best approximating images of a convex Lambertian object taken from the same viewpoint, but under different distant illumination conditions. Si...

3D Model Retrieval with Spherical Harmonics and Moments
We consider 3D object retrieval in which a polygonal mesh serves as a query and similar objects are retrieved from a collection of 3D objects. Algorithms proceed first by a normal...

Spherical harmonic Gradients for Mid-Range Illumination
Spherical harmonics are often used for compact description of incident radiance in low-frequency but distant lighting environments. For interaction with nearby emitters, computing...

Spherical Harmonics Descriptor for 2D-Image Retrieval
In this paper, spherical harmonics are proposed as shape descriptors for 2d images. We introduce the concept of connectivity; 2d images are decomposed using connectivity which is ...

Non-Negative Lighting and Specular Object Recognition
Recognition of specular objects is particularly difficult because their appearance is much more sensitive to lighting changes than that of Lambertian objects. We consider an appr...
