The bidirectional texture function (BTF) describes texture appearance variations due to varying illumination and viewing conditions. This function is acquired by large number of m...
We propose a novel framework to build descriptors of local intensity that are invariant to general deformations. In this framework, an image is embedded as a 2D surface in 3D spac...
Abstract. Graph cuts have become very popular in many areas of computer vision including segmentation, energy minimization, and 3D reconstruction. Their ability to find optimal res...
: Implicit solvent models based on the Poisson-Boltzmann (PB) equation are frequently used to describe the interactions of a biomolecule with its dielectric continuum environment. ...
We present a novel framework for the efficient simulation and animation of discrete thin shells. Our method takes a point sampled surface as input and performs all necessary compu...
