We describe a novel formulation of the range recovery problem, based on computation of the di erential variation in image intensities with respect to changes in camera position. The method uses a single stationary camera and a pair of calibrated optical attenuation masks to directly measure this di erential quantity. The subsequent computation of the range image is simple and should be suitable...

Graph visualization is concerned with visual representations of graph or network data. Effective graph visualization reveals structures that may be present in the graphs, and helps the users to understand and analyze the underlying data. A graph consists of nodes and edges. It is a mathematical structure describing relations among a set of entities, where a node represents an entity, and an edg...

We are living in a world where seeing is no longer believing – the technology that allows for digital media to be manipulated and distorted is developing at break-neck speeds. And at the same time our understanding of the technological, ethical, and legal implications is lagging behind. How is this technology affecting our society and how do we contend with the implications? Hany Farid describe...

This chapter presents a framework for detecting fake regions by using various methods including watermarking technique and blind approaches. In particular, we describe current categories on blind approaches which can be divided into five: pixel-based techniques, format-based techniques, camera-based techniques, physically-based techniques and geometric-based techniques. Then we take a second lo...
