Workers in the field of computational vision have devised many distinct schemes that attempt to duplicate this ability of human vision; these schemes are collectively called \"s hape from .... \" methods ( e.g., shape from shading, ahape from texture, shape from contour). In thia paper we argue that the di stinct assumptions employed by each of these different achemes must be equivalent to providing a second (virtual) ·image of the original scene, and that all of these different approaches can be translated into a conventional stereo formalism. In particular, we show that it is frequently possible to structure the problern as that of recovering depth from a stereo pair consisting of a conventional perspective image (the original image) and an orthographic image (the virtual image). We provide a new algorithm of the form required to accomplish this type of stereo reconatruc· tion task.","doi":null,"url":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1985/189","pdf":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1985/0189.pdf","markdown":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1985/189.md","bibtex":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1985/bibtex/189","volume":{"slug":"1985","title":"Proceedings of the Ninth International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence","short_title":"IJCAI 1985","url":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1985/","year":1985,"location":"Los Angeles, California, USA","dates":"","editors":"Aravind Joshi","isbn":"","publisher":"International Joint Conferences on Artificial Intelligence","doi_prefix":""},"section":"Perception","track":"Perception","number":189,"pages":{"first":937,"last":942},"keywords":[],"videos":[],"references":[],"license_note":"Copyright International Joint Conferences on Artificial Intelligence."}
