"Perceptual Representation of Illumination, Shape and Material" (PRISM)
Start date: Jan 1, 2013, End date: Dec 31, 2016,
"Visual perception provides us with a richly detailed representation of the surrounding world, enabling us to make subtle judgements of 1) 3D shape, 2) the material properties of objects, and 3) the flow of illumination within a scene. Together, these three factors determine the intensity of a surface in the image. Estimating scene properties is crucial for guiding action and making decisions like ...
