Abstract
We propose a fast estimation algorithm for calculation of a reflectance map from measured radiances based on Wiener estimation technique. This technique uses many sample data of reflectance maps to decide transformation for accurate estimation. Reflectance maps of objects are estimated rapidly by linear operation between a vector of measured radiances and an estimation matrix previously calculated based on the sample data.
