sqrt(mean_n (albedo * (n.L_n) - I_n)^2) — the root-mean-square
disagreement between the linear model and the measurements, in the units of
the input radiance. On a synthetic Lambertian surface with the true
float64 normals and albedo supplied it measures 1.4e-16 at worst; with them
omitted the floor rises to 4.5e-08, because
:func:photometric.photometric_stereo returns float32 and that is its
precision, not a modelling error (supplying the same truth cast to
float32 reproduces 4.5e-08 exactly). It is large where the assumption
actually broke: 0.50 at worst on the same scene with 3 of 8 lights blocked
by a cast shadow — fifteen orders of magnitude above the clean floor. All
four numbers measured in tests/test_specularity.py.
This is the diagnostic that tells you whether you need
:func:photometric_stereo_robust before you reach for it, and it is the
map an inspection routine thresholds to find glossy defects.
With normals and albedo omitted it solves them first with
:func:photometric.photometric_stereo and reports the residual of that fit
— the honest self-assessment of the plain estimator. Pass them to score an
estimate that came from somewhere else (a robust fit, a CAD model, a
previous frame).
Note the residual uses n.L without the max(., 0) clamp, because
that is the linear system the solver actually inverted; a pixel in attached
shadow therefore shows a residual, which is the intended signal rather than
an artefact.
Raises ValueError: images / lights problems as in
:func:photometric_stereo_robust; normals is not (H, W, 3) matching
the images; albedo is not (H, W); exactly one of normals / albedo
is given (the pair is meaningless apart — the model is albedo * n).
