Shadow Removal in Python OpenCV

问题

I am trying to implement shadow removal in python OpenCV using the method of entropy minimization by Finlayson, et. al.:

"Intrinsic Images by Entropy Minimization", Finlayson, et. al.

I can't seem to match the results from the paper. My entropy plot does not match up with those from the paper and I am getting the wrong minimum entropy.

Any thoughts? (I have much more source code and papers upon request)

回答1:

Shadow Removal Using Illumination Invariant Image Formation (Ranaweera, Drew) notes under Results and Discussion that the results from JPEG images and PNG images differ due to the JPEG compression. So expecting results exactly like what "Intrinsic Images by Entropy Minimization" (Finlayson, et. al.) shows may not be reasonable.

I also notice that you are not adding back the 'extra light' that the author recommends in other papers.

Also, while defining rg_chrom, the order of the channels needs to be BGR instead of RGB like you have used.

I'm working on implementing the paper, so your code was extremely useful to me. Thanks for that
