Dealing with Textureless Regions and Specular Highlights - A Progressive Space Carving Scheme Using a Novel Photo-consistency Measure
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present two extensions to the Space Carving framework. The first is a progressive scheme to better reconstruct surfaces lacking sufficient textures. The second is a novel photo-consistency measure that is valid for both specular and diffuse surfaces, under unknown lighting conditions.

Contour Generator Points for Threshold Selection and a Novel Photo-Consistency Measure for Space Carving
Space carving has emerged as a powerful method for multiview scene reconstruction. Although a wide variety of methods have been proposed, the quality of the reconstruction remains highly-dependent on the photometric consistency measure, and the threshold used to carve away voxels. In this paper, we present a novel photo-consistency measure that is motivated by a multiset variant of the chamfer ...
متن کاملExtracting layers and analyzing their specular properties using epipolar-plane-image analysis
Despite progress in stereo reconstruction and structure from motion, 3D scene reconstruction from multiple images still faces many difficulties, especially in dealing with occlusions, partial visibility, textureless regions, and specular reflections. Moreover, the problem of recovering a spatially dense 3D representation from many views has not been adequately treated. This document addresses t...
متن کاملVisual Estimation of Shape, Reflectance and Illumination
This work investigates one of the fundamental problems in machine vision, that of obtaining a three-dimensional (3D) digital model of a real object, from a collection of photographs. 3D computer models are a vital part of a wide range of disciplines, from the study of sculpture and architecture to archaeology, structural engineering and computer graphics. We focus on two important open question...
متن کاملSurface Reconstruction from Multiple Views Using Apparent Contours and Surface Texture
We describe a novel approach to reconstructing the complete surface of an object from multiple views, where the camera circumnavigates the object. The approach combines the information available from the apparent contour with the information available from the imaged surface texture. It is demonstrated that this approach of combining two information sources has significant advantages over using...
متن کاملReconstruction of Specular Surfaces using Polarization Imaging
Traditional intensity imaging does not offer a general approach for the perception of textureless and specular reflecting surfaces. Intensity based methods for shape reconstruction of specular surfaces rely on virtual (i.e. mirrored) features moving over the surface under viewer motion. We present a novel method based on polarization imaging for shape recovery of specular surfaces. This method ...
