11 3-D Object Description and Computation Techniques, Surfaces, Deformable, View Generation, Video Conferencing

This chapter has papers on three-dimensional description methods. There is much overlap possible with the stereo chapter. There is a lot of work in the graphics field which would be relevant here, but is ignored. This chapter includes mostly computer vision applications of graphics representations. The primary theme is the generation of these representations, not the theory behind the ultimate representation. Descriptions, General.

WWW Version. In low-level vision, the representation of scene properties such as shape, albedo, etc., are very high dimensional as they have to describe complicated structures. The approach proposed here is to let the image itself bear as much of the representational burden as possible. 0306 BibRef
