DOI: 10.1109/tap.2020.3016499
Abstract: The physical theory of diffraction (PTD) is presented for triangular cylinders with faces consisting of soft (electric) and hard (magnetic) sections. It is shown that the specular reflections from such cylinders can be canceled and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1109/tip.2020.2967857
Abstract: Removing specular reflections from images is critical for improving the performance of computer vision algorithms. Recently, state-of-the-art methods have demonstrated remarkably good performance at removing specular reflections from chromatic images. These methods are typically based… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fpsyg.2022.766056
Abstract: Specular reflections and refractive distortions are complex image properties of solid transparent objects, but despite this complexity, we readily perceive the 3D shapes of these objects (e.g., glass and clear plastic). We have found in… read more here.
