Shape from Shading with discontinuous image brightness
The Shape–from–Shading models in image analysis lead to first order Hamilton– Jacobi equations which may have several weak solutions (in the viscosity sense). Moreover, for real images, these equations are highly discontinuous in the space variable. The lack of uniqueness and the irregularity of the coefficients involve some troubles when we try to compute a solution. In order to avoid these di...
متن کاملError bound between monotone difference schemes and their modified equations
It is widely believed that if monotone difference schemes are applied to the linear convection equation with discontinuous initial data, then solutions of the monotone schemes are closer to solutions of their parabolic modified equations than that of the original convection equation. We will confirm the conjecture in this paper. It is well known that solutions of the monotone schemes and their ...
متن کاملA mathematical and algorithmic study of the Lambertian SFS problem for orthographic and pinhole cameras
This report proposes a mathematical and algorithmic study of the Lambertian SFS problem for orthographic and pinhole cameras. Our approach is based upon the notion of viscosity solutions of Hamilton-Jacobi equations. This approach provides a mathematical framework in which we can prove the well-posedness of the problem (proof of the existence of a solution and characterization of all solutions)...
متن کاملBoundary conditions and fast algorithms for surface reconstructions from synthetic aperture radar data
Most attempts to determine surface height from noiseless Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) data involve approximating the surface by solving a related standard Shape From Shading (SFS) problem. Through analysis of the underlying partial differential equations for both the original SAR problem and the approximating standard SFS problem we demonstrate significant differences between them. For exampl...
متن کاملTerrain Modeling in Synthetic Aperture Radar Images Using Shape-from-Shading
In this paper we introduce a new approach for recovering shape-from-shading (SFS) from synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images of the terrain. Three contributions are proposed. Firstly, we show how the direction of surface normals is constrained by the geometry of the radar reflectivity cone. Second, we show how topographic features can be used as boundary constraints on the recovered surface nor...
