Title: Monocular Normal Estimation via Shading Sequence Estimation
Abstract:
arXiv:2602.09929v5 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Monocular normal estimation aims to estimate the normal map from a single RGB image of an object under arbitrary lights. Existing methods rely on deep models to directly predict normal maps. However, they often suffer from 3D misalignment: while the estimated normal maps may appear to have a correct appearance, the reconstructed surfaces often fail to align with the geometric details. We argue that this misalignment stems from the current
