EIA-0004056Kriegman, DavidUniversity of Illinois at Urbana-ChampaignPostdoctoral: New Shape and Reflectance Models for Vision and Image-Based RenderingTwo areas of computer vision and image-based rendering are to be exploredby the postdoctoral associate. The first project will result in methodsfor more realistically rendering scenes by constructing surface reflectancemodels from image data. The result could lead to a new way to measure abi-directional density function under known lighting conditions and torender images under novel lighting conditions. The second project aims toexplore the recognition of objects whose shapes are continuously changing.The problem is phrased as an abstract contour shape recognition problemwhere shape evolves dynamically. Several immediate applications in biologyand related fields are expected.
