Specular Reflection Models

Specular Reflection Models is a class of illumination models in computer graphics that specifically characterize the reflection of light from surfaces in a mirror-like direction, distinguished by their mathematical formulations to approximate the distribution and intensity of specular highlights based on surface roughness and viewing geometry.
