Abstract
We describe an algorithm for reconstructing the 3D shape of the scene and the relative pose of a number of cameras from a collection of images under the assumption that the scene does not contain photometrically distinct “features”. We work under the explicit assumption that the scene is made of a number of smooth surfaces that radiate constant energy isotropically in all directions, and setup a regionbased cost functional that we minimize using local gradient flow techniques.
