Part II: Applications In Computer Vision
The chapters in this section describe a variety of interesting applications in computer vision, ranging from the more traditional (content-based image retrieval, face detection, human tracking) to the more graphics-oriented (image-based lighting and visual effects).
In Chapter 6, Debevec describes how scenes and objects can be illuminated using images of light from the real world. While this operation, also known as image-based lighting, has its roots in computer graphics, it requires computer vision techniques to extract high dynamic range images and resample the captured light.
Many of the special effects seen in movies rely on computer vision techniques to facilitate their production. In Chapter 7 ...
