Freeform surfaces from single curved panels
Motivated by applications in architecture and manufacturing, we discuss the problem of covering a freeform surface by single curved panels. This leads to the new concept of semi-d...

Dynamic PDE Surfaces with Flexible and General Geometric Constraints
PDE surfaces, whose behavior is governed by Partial Differential Equations (PDEs), have demonstrated many modeling advantages in surface blending, free-form surface modeling, and ...

Discrete Laplace-Beltrami Operator Determines Discrete Riemannian Metric
The Laplace-Beltrami operator of a smooth Riemannian manifold is determined by the Riemannian metric. Conversely, the heat kernel constructed from its eigenvalues and eigenfunctio...

An Anthropometric Face Model Using Variational Techniques
We describe a system that automatically generates varied geometric models of human faces. A collection of random measurements of the face is generated according to anthropometric ...
