Numerical Shape from Shading and Occluding Contours in a Single View

An iterative method of using occluding boundary information is proposed to compute surface slope from shading. We use a stereographic space rather than the more commonly used gradient space in order to express occluding boundary information. Further, we use "average" smoothness cons...
