Abstract!
We propose a joint albedonormal approach to non-line-
of-sight (NLOS) surface reconstruction using the directional
light-cone transform (D-LCT). While current NLOS imaging
methods reconstruct either the albedo or surface normals of
the hidden scene, the two quantities provide complementary
information of the scene, so an efficient method to estimate
both simultaneously is desirable. We formulate the recovery
of the two quantities as a vector deconvolution problem, and
solve it using the CholeskyWiener decomposition. We show
that surfaces fitted non-parametrically using our recovered
normals are more accurate than those produced with NLOS
surface reconstruction methods recently proposed, and are
1,000× faster to compute than using inverse rendering.
