Shape from Gradients. A psychophysical and computational study of the role complex illumination gradients, such as shading and mutual illumination, play in three-dimensional shape perception. [PDF]
The human visual system gathers information about three-dimensional object shape from a wide range of sources. How effectively we can use these sources, and how they are combined to form a consistent and accurate percept of the 3D world is the focus of ...

Robust Shape from Shading [PDF]
Existing shape from shading algorithms are not robust enough to work reliably with real images. We present a new paradigm for shape from shading based upon a scale space surface representation. Using this representation, the shape from shading problem becomes one of forming a surface from Gaussian basis functions in such a way that the shading in the ...

Luminance contrast provides metric depth information
The perception of depth from retinal images depends on information from multiple visual cues. One potential depth cue is the statistical relationship between luminance and distance; darker points in a local region of an image tend to be farther away than

A Linearization–Based Hybrid Approach for 3D Reconstruction of Objects in a Single Image
The shape-from-shading (SFS) technique uses the pattern of shading in images in order to obtain 3D view information. By virtue of their ease of implementation, linearization-based SFS algorithms are frequently used in the literature.

On the perception of shape from shading [PDF]
The extraction of three-dimensional shape from shading is one of the most perceptually compelling, yet poorly understood, aspects of visual perception. In this paper, we report several new experiments on the manner in which the perception of shape from shading interacts with other visual processes such as perceptual grouping, preattentive search ("pop ...

Is countershading camouflage robust to lighting change due to weather? [PDF]
Countershading is a pattern of coloration thought to have evolved in order to implement camouflage. By adopting a pattern of coloration that makes the surface facing towards the sun darker and the surface facing away from the sun lighter, the overall ...
