We present results of using Bayesian inference for recovering the 3-D shape and texture of an object based on information extracted from a single 2-D image. We are using a number of different models for specific object classes. The goal is to combine the classes to a hierarchical structure. Instead of searching for the most probable explanation we estimate the entire posterior distribution of the model parameters using Markov chain Monte Carlo methods. The evaluation of model fit is based on combining edge information with intensity difference between the model and the target image.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
