Recovering Transparent Shape from Time-of-Flight Distortion
2016
2016 IEEE Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition (CVPR)
Although this problem is not strictly convex, we observed that this problem is approximately convex 5 ; hence the optimal solution can be obtained. ...
Discussions We developed a method for transparent shape recovery using the time-of-flight distortion. ...

Efficient determination of shape from multiple images containing partial information
1996
Proceedings of 13th International Conference on Pattern Recognition
We consider the problem of reconstructing the shape of a 2-D object from multiple partial images related by scaled translations, in the presence of occlusion. ...
Finally, we consider the case where the object is known to be convex. ...
We view this situation as a special case of the problem of shape recovery in the presence of occlusion. ...

Functional Convex Averaging and Synchronization for Time-Warped Random Curves
2004
Journal of the American Statistical Association
Previous analyses of warping typically have not been based on a model in which individual observed curves are viewed as realizations of a stochastic process. ...
We propose a functional convex synchronization model, under the premise that each observed curve is the realization of a stochastic process. ...
The functional convex average clearly leads to improved recovery of the target function τ (·) in these simulation examples, and the functional convex mean provides a reasonable representation of shapes ...

Exploiting Residue Curve Maps to Assess Thermodynamic Feasibility Boundaries under Uncertain Operating Conditions
2020
Industrial & Engineering Chemistry Research
The final product of this study is a thorough procedure to determine the flexibility boundaries of feed and product compositions as well as an immediate and intuitive graphical representation from a binary ...
An ABE/W (acetone−butanol−ethanol/water) mixture was then selected as a case study since it allows us to discuss several non-ideal thermodynamic behaviors and because of the renewed interest in biorefinery ...
Finally, according to the shape of the N-dimensional separatrix boundary, RCM graphical representations allow us to predict the effect of the presence of a further component in the feed stream from a flexibility ...

Uncalibrated Photometric Stereo for Unknown Isotropic Reflectances
2013
2013 IEEE Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition
Based on these observations, we show that surface normals can be estimated up to a convex/concave ambiguity. ...
Our method uses a pixel intensity profile, which is a sequence of radiance intensities recorded at a pixel across multi-illuminance images. ...

A theory of shape by space carving
1999
Proceedings of the Seventh IEEE International Conference on Computer Vision
By studying the equivalence class of all 3D shapes that reproduce the input photographs, we prove the existence of a special member of this class, the photo hull, that 1 can be computed directly from photographs ...
In this paper we consider the problem of computing the 3D shape of an unknown, arbitrarily-shaped scene from multiple photographs taken at known but arbitrarily-distributed viewpoints. ...
The closed photo hull therefore satis es our de nition of a shape. 16 Note that such a point does exist since P N is a closed and bounded subset of IR 3 and hence it is compact Armstrong, 1983. ...

Gradient-based surface reconstruction using compressed sensing
2012
2012 19th IEEE International Conference on Image Processing
Surface reconstruction from measurements of spatial gradient is an important computer vision problem with applications in photometric stereo and shape-from-shading. ...
DCS can be viewed as a modification of the classical compressed sensing (CS), which is particularly suited for reconstructions involving image/surface gradients. ...
Note that the problem (2) is strictly convex, and hence admits a unique minimizer. ...

Robust surface normal estimation via greedy sparse regression
2015
EURASIP Journal on Image and Video Processing
Photometric stereo (PST) is a widely used technique of estimating surface normals from an image set. However, it often produces inaccurate results for non-Lambertian surface reflectance. ...
This allows for a large repertoire of existing sparse recovery algorithms to be more straightforwardly applied to the PST problem. ...
Acknowledgements The authors would like to thank the anonymous referees for their insightful comments and suggestions, which help improve the quality of the current study substantially. ...

Convex Cardinal Shape Composition
[article]
2015
arXiv
pre-print
Applications vary from shape-based characterization, object tracking, optical character recognition, and shape recovery in occlusion, to other disciplines such as the geometric packing problem. ...
This is a combinatorial problem solving which requires an exhaustive search among a large number of possibilities. We propose a convex relaxation to the problem to make it computationally tractable. ...
Inspired by ideas from sparse recovery, the 1 constraint is used to control the number of active shapes in the final representation. ...

LASSO ISOtone for High Dimensional Additive Isotonic Regression
[article]
2010
arXiv
pre-print
In this article, we present a new method for such regression called LASSO Isotone (LISO). LISO adapts ideas from sparse linear modelling to additive isotonic regression. ...
We suggest an algorithm involving a modification of the backfitting algorithm CPAV. We give a numerical convergence result, and finally examine some of its properties through simulations. ...
In this case, the loglikelihood residual sum of squares term is strictly convex, and so, as a strictly convex optimisation on a convex set, an unique solution exists. ...

Recovering Facial Shape Using a Statistical Model of Surface Normal Direction
2006
IEEE Transactions on Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence
In this paper, we show how a statistical model of facial shape can be embedded within a shape-from-shading algorithm. ...
We demonstrate that the combination of a global statistical constraint and local irradiance constraint yields an efficient and accurate approach to facial shape recovery and is capable of recovering fine ...
This suggests that, in some cases, human shape-from-shading makes use of prior class knowledge to constrain the shape recovery process. ...
