Various visual cues provide information about depth and shape in a scene. When several of
these cues are simultaneously available in a single location in the scene, the visual system …

A fundamental problem for the visual perception of 3D shape is that patterns of optical
stimulation are inherently ambiguous. Recent mathematical analyses have shown, however …

The goal of our work is to complete the depth channel of an RGB-D image. Commodity-
grade depth cameras often fail to sense depth for shiny, bright, transparent, and distant …

We propose a method for reconstructing 3D shapes from 2D sketches in the form of line
drawings. Our method takes as input a single sketch, or multiple sketches, and outputs a …

The three-volume work Perceiving in Depth is a sequel to Binocular Vision and Stereopsis
and to Seeing in Depth, both by Ian P. Howard and Brian J. Rogers. This work is much …

The appearance of surfaces in real-world scenes is determined by the materials, textures,
and context in which the surfaces appear. However, the datasets we have for visualizing and …

Multisensory integration is critical for supporting human spatial perception as we move
around our environment. In this study, we used a modern head-mounted display (HMD) as a …

Product designers extensively use sketching to reason and communicate about 3D shapes,
as documented in popular design sketching textbooks [Eissen and Steur 2008, 2011; Pipes …

Many materials, including leaves, water, plastic, and chrome exhibit specular reflections. It
seems reasonable that the visual system can somehow exploit specular reflections to …

The human visual system is proficient in perceiving three-dimensional shape from the
shading patterns in a two-dimensional image. How it does this is not well understood and …
