Abstract
We discuss calibration and removal of “vignetting” (radial falloff) and exposure (gain) variations from sequences of images. Even when the response curve is known, spatially varying ambiguities prevent us from recovering the vignetting, exposure, and scene radiances uniquely. However, the vignetting and exposure variations can nonetheless be removed from the images without resolving these ambiguities or the previously known scale and gamma ambiguities. Applications include panoramic image mosaics, photometry for material reconstruction, image-based rendering, and preprocessing for correlation-based vision algorithms.

Vignette and Exposure Calibration and Compensation
ICCV '05: Proceedings of the Tenth IEEE International Conference on Computer Vision (ICCV'05) Volume 1 - Volume 01We discuss calibration and removal of "vignetting" (radial falloff) and exposure (gain) variations from sequences of images. Unique solutions for vignetting, exposure and scene radiances are possible when the response curve is known. When the response ...
Self-calibration of hybrid central catadioptric and perspective cameras
Hybrid central catadioptric and perspective cameras are desired in practice, because the hybrid camera system can capture large field of view as well as high-resolution images. However, the calibration of the system is challenging due to heavy ...
Self-Calibration of Turntable Sequences from Silhouettes
This paper addresses the problem of recovering both the intrinsic and extrinsic parameters of a camera from the silhouettes of an object in a turntable sequence. Previous silhouette-based approaches have exploited correspondences induced by epipolar ...
