Earlier: (Spelling of second: Leighton??), ICCV87(721-726). It seems to say that given a surface, for each maximum or minimum of the principle curvature along a line of curvature, there is a symmetry axis terminating at this point. This would seem to aid shape from contour also. It was generalized from a 2D case by the second author. See also Symmetry-Curvature Duality. BibRef
