The estimation of 3D geometry from a single image is a special case of image-based 3D reconstruction from several images,
but is considerably more difficult since depth cannot be estimated from pixel correspondences. Thus, further prior knowledge or user input is needed in order to recover or infer any depth information.
By assuming plane symmetry and surface smoothness, depth information can be inferred from an image silhouette by specifying only the volume of the object.
In order to allow for surface creases, the user is able to alter the surface smoothness locally.
By changing a single parameter - the object volume - depth information can be inferred with a minimum of user interaction.
The following video shows results of our method which uses a heightmap representation of the surface (see CVPR'12 publication for details).
