چکیده
We present a method for Shape-from-Texture in one of its most general forms. Previous Shape-from-Texture papers assume that the texture is constrained by one or more of the following properties: homogeneity, isotropy, stationarity, or viewed orthographically. We make none of these assumptions. We do not presume that the frontal texture is known a priori, or from a known set, or even present in the image. Instead, surface smoothness is assumed, and the surface is recovered via a consistency constraint. The key idea is that the frontal texture is estimated, and a correct estimation leads to the most consistent surface. In addition to surface shape, a frontal view of the texture is also recovered. Results are given for synthetic and real examples.

Saint-Venant torsion of non-homogeneous anisotropic bars
The BEM is applied to the solution of the torsion problem of non-homogeneous anisotropic non-circular prismatic bars. The problem is formulated in terms of the warping function. This formulation leads to a second order partial differential equation with variable coefficients, subjected to a generalized Neumann type boundary condition. The problem is solved using the Analog Equation Method (AEM)...
متن کاملThe perception of 3D shape from texture based on directional width gradients.
A new computational analysis is described that is capable of estimating the 3D shapes of continuously curved surfaces with anisotropic textures that are viewed with negligible perspective. This analysis assumes that the surface texture is homogeneous, and it makes specific predictions about how the apparent shape of a surface should be distorted in cases where that assumption is violated. Two p...
متن کاملThree-dimensional shape from non-homogeneous textures: carved and stretched surfaces.
We examined the perception of 3D shape for surfaces folded, carved, or stretched out of textured materials. The textures were composed of sums of sinusoidal gratings or of circular dots, and were designed to differentiate between orientation and frequency information present in perspective images of the surfaces. Correct perception of concavities, convexities, saddles, and slants required the v...
متن کاملSeparating Non-Stationary from Stationary Scene Components in a Sequence of Real World TV Images
Results are presented for a new method to ident i fy images of moving objects in a sequence of scene images, e.g. from a TV-camera observing a street intersect ion. The reported approach exploits the assumption that systematic greyvalue differences based on second order s ta t is t ics between consecutive frames are due to images of moving objects. No knowledge is assumed about size, shape, or ...
متن کاملPerspective Accurate Splatting
We present a novel algorithm for accurate, high quality point rendering, which is based on the formulation of splatting using homogeneous coordinates. In contrast to previous methods, this leads to perspective correct splat shapes, avoiding artifacts such as holes caused by the affine approximation of the perspective projection. Further, our algorithm implements the EWA resampling filter, hence...
