چکیده

In this correspondence, a method is proposed for estimating the surface orientation of a planar texture under perspective projection based on the ridge of a two-dimensional (2-D) continuous wavelet transform (CWT). We show that an analytical solution of the surface orientation can be derived from the scales of the ridge surface. A comparative study with an existing method is given.

Recovering Orientation of a Textured Planar Surface Using Wavelet Transform

Shape from texture has received a great deal of attention in the past few decades. This paper analyzes the spectral variations of texture spatial frequencies as a function of orientation and depth of a 3-D planar surface. Based on this relationship we attempt to derive an expression for the extraction of 3-D surface orientation using texture features alone. Using experimentation on simulated te...

Planar surface orientation from texture spatial frequencies

-This paper presents a computational model and a practical algorithm for determining the three-dimensional orientation of a planar surface from visual texture information. The model consists of three parts: (1) a local spatial frequency based texture representation; (2) a model describing the projection of surface texture to image texture; and (3) a solution of the texture projection model for ...

A Statistical Technique for Recovering Surface Orientation from Texture in Natural Imagery

A statistical method is reported for inferring the shape and orientation of irregularly marked surfaces using image geometry. The basis for solving this problem lies in an understanding of projective geometry, coupled with simple statistical models of the contour generating process. This approach is first applied to the special case of surfaces known to be planar. The distortion of contour shap...

Shape from Texture: Fast Estimation of Planar Surface Orientation via Fourier Analysis

Shape from texture has received much attention in the past few decades. We propose a computationally efficient method to extract 3D planar surface orientation from the spectral variations of a visual texture. Under the assumption of homogeneity, the texture is represented by the novel method of identifying ridges of its Fourier transform. Local spatial frequencies are then computed using a mini...
