Putting Objects in Perspective

Successful
vision algorithms must go beyond local analysis within the 2D image plane, into
a global analysis of objects and surfaces within the context of the 3D
scene. But how can we do all of this if we only have only a
single image? I will describe our first steps, in which
we provide a rough layout of the major surfaces and perspective of the
scene. Such information can then be used to improve object recognition,
navigation, and other real–world tasks.
