Aj. Stewart et Ms. Langer, TOWARD ACCURATE RECOVERY OF SHAPE FROM SHADING UNDER DIFFUSE LIGHTING, IEEE transactions on pattern analysis and machine intelligence, 19(9), 1997, pp. 1020-1025
A new surface radiance model for diffuse lighting is presented which i
ncorporates shadows, interreflections, and surface orientation. An alg
orithm is presented that uses this model to compute shape-from-shading
under diffuse lighting. The algorithm is tested on both synthetic and
real images, and is found to perform more accurately than the only pr
evious algorithm for this problem.
