Shape Reconstruction from Apparent Contours Theory and Algorithms

Motivated by a variational model concerning the depth of the objects in a picture and the problem of hidden and illusory contours, this book investigates one of the central problems of computer vision: the  topological and algorithmic reconstruction

TSOTSOS, York University, Toronto, Canada This comprehensive book series embraces state-of-the-art expository works and advanced research monographs on any aspect of this interdisciplinary field.

Topics covered by the series fall in the following four main categories: • • • •

Imaging Systems and Image Processing Computer Vision and Image Understanding Visualization Applications of Imaging Technologies

Only monographs or multi-authored books that have a distinct subject area, that is where each chapter has been invited in order to fulfill this purpose, will be considered for the series.
