Abstract:
Differential equations (ODEs or PDEs) appear in many computer vision fields. Shape-from-shading, optical flow, optics, and 3D motion are examples of such fields. This report discusses theoretical criteria for the corresponding continuous problem, theoretical criteria for discrete numerical schemes, and experimental measurements for the implemented numerical schemes. These criteria are illustrated by discussing a shape-from-shading problem in which the reflectance map is linear.
