Abstract
This paper is concerned with the use of a database to support automated photo interpretation. The function of the database is to provide an environment in which to perform photo interpretation utilizing software tools, and represent domain knowledge about the scenes being interpreted. Within the framework of the database, image interpretation systems use knowledge stored as map, terrain, or scene descriptions to provide structural or spatial constraints to guide human and machine processing. We describe one such system under development, MAPS (Map Assisted Photo interpretation System), and give some general rationales for its design and implementation.© (1981) COPYRIGHT SPIE--The International Society for Optical Engineering.

An iterative image registration technique with an application to stereo vision

TL;DR: In this paper, the spatial intensity gradient of the images is used to find a good match using a type of Newton-Raphson iteration, which can be generalized to handle rotation, scaling and shearing.

Recovery of the three-dimensional shape of an object from a single view

TL;DR: The purpose of this paper is to identify some of these assumptions about the world and the image formation process by demonstrating how the theory and techniques which exploit such assumptions can provide a systematic shape-recovery method.

Mapping image properties into shape constraints: skewed symmetry, affine-transformable patterns, and the shape-from-texture paradigm

TL;DR: In this article, the authors demonstrate two new approaches to derive three-dimensional surface orientation information (shape) from two-dimensional image cues: affine transformable patterns and shape-from-texture paradigm.
