Abstract:
This paper presents and analyzes four finite difference methods for linear shape from shading problem. Comparisons of accuracy, solvability, stability and convergence of these methods indicate that the weighted semi-implicit method and the box method are better than the other ones because they are easily calculated, more accurate, faster in convergence and unconditionally stable.
