I am working on a project that involves removing highlight areas of an image. I stumbled on the paper; Real-time Specular Highlight Removal Using Bilateral Filtering, which has shown some promising results. For it to work though, they require

the input images have chromatic surfaces

My questions are:

1. What is a chromatic surface? Taking a guess from the input images shown in the paper, they all share a dark background. Is this what a chromatic surface is? Just an image with a dark background? Does the object have to be up-close?
2. Given your standard BGR input image, is it possible to convert it to the required standard i.e. chromatic surface? If yes, how?

The second question might sound stupid but that is because I have zero knowledge of what a chromatic surface is in the first place. Any guidance will greatly appreciated
