Semi-Calibrated Near-Light Photometric Stereo
Résumé
We tackle the nonlinear problem of photometric stereo under close-range pointwise sources, when the intensities of the sources are unknown (so-called semi-calibrated setup). A variational approach aiming at robust joint recovery of depth, albedo and intensities is proposed. The resulting nonconvex model is numerically resolved by a provably conver-gent alternating minimization scheme, where the construction of each subproblem utilizes an iteratively reweighted least-squares approach. In particular, manifold optimization technique is used in solving the corresponding subproblems over the rank-1 matrix manifold. Experiments on real-world datasets demonstrate that the new approach provides not only theoretical guarantees on convergence, but also more accurate geometry.
