—A unified approach to rate-distortion (R-D) optimized compression and view-dependent transmission of three-dimensional (3-D) normal meshes is investigated in this work. A norma...

We propose a sweep-based approach to the freeform deformation of three-dimensional objects. Instead of using a volume enclosing the whole object, we approximate only its deformabl...
Character skinning determines how the shape of the surface geometry changes as a function of the pose of the underlying skeleton. In this paper we describe skinning templates, whi...

BSP trees and KD trees are fundamental data structures for collision detection in walkthrough environments. A basic issue in the construction of these hierarchical data structures...
