Self Shadows and Cast Shadows in Estimating Illumination Distribution
This paper compares two methods for estimating illumination distributions from shadows: methods using self shadows and cast shadows. The cast shadow method provides an effective framework for recovering illuminations in a real scene utilizing variations of image brightnesses inside shadows cast by an occluding object of known shape. The shadow surface is typically the same plane on which the ob...
متن کاملA Class of Self-affine and Self-affine Measures
Let I = {φj}j=1 be an iterated function system (IFS) consisting of a family of contractive affine maps on Rd. Hutchinson [8] proved that there exists a unique compact set K = K(I), called the attractor of the IFS I, such that K = ⋃m j=1 φj(K). Moreover, for any given probability vector p = (p1, . . . , pm), i.e. pj > 0 for all j and ∑m j=1 pj = 1, there exists a unique compactly supported proba...
متن کاملSeed Shadows: a Landscape View of Demographic and Genetic Effects
A seed shadow is the spatial pattern of seed distribution relative to parent trees and other conspecifics; it results from the process of seed dispersal and represents the starting template for plant regeneration. Janzen (1970) and Connell (1971) consider it the population recruitment surface. For animal-dispersed, endozoochorous species the seed shadow results primarily from movement patterns ...
متن کاملOn Analytical Study of Self-Affine Maps
Self-affine maps were successfully used for edge detection, image segmentation, and contour extraction. They belong to the general category of patch-based methods. Particularly, each self-affine map is defined by one pair of patches in the image domain. By minimizing the difference between these patches, the optimal translation vector of the self-affine map is obtained. Almost all image process...
متن کاملTuberculosis: lights and shadows in the current diagnostic landscape.
Despite the improvements in the global fight against tuberculosis (TB), critical points still remain and fuel the epidemic. Even today, only 30% of the estimate number of people suffering from TB worldwide are correctly diagnosed, and lower proportions of cases are diagnosed in high-TB-burden, low-resource settings. Current TB diagnostics are still suboptimal in their performance for childhood ...
