This paper presents a novel method for 3D surface reconstruction that uses polarization and
shading information from two views. The method relies on the polarization data acquired …

Previous work has developed an approach for estimating shape and albedo from multiple
images assuming Lambertian reflectance with single light sources. The main contributions of …

Traditional photometric stereo algorithms employ a Lambertian reflectance model with a
varying albedo field and involve the appearance of only one object. In this paper, we …

We present an approach for estimating surface normals from in-the-wild color images of
faces. While data-driven strategies have been proposed for single face images, limited …

We present a novel technique, termed attached shadow coding, for estimating surface
normals from shadows when the reflectance and lighting conditions are unknown. Our key …

We investigate the problem of reconstructing normals, albedo and lights of Lambertian
surfaces in uncalibrated photometric stereo under the perspective projection model. Our …

This research presents a novel 2D feature space where real faces and masked fake faces
can be effectively discriminated. We exploit the reflectance disparity based on albedo …

Two experiments are reported in which observers judged the sign and magnitude of surface
curvature from shaded images of an indoor scene. The depicted surfaces were illuminated …
