Area-Preserving Mappings for the Visualization of Medical Structures
Abstract. In this note, we present a method for flattening anatomical surfaces such as branched vessels and intestinal tracts in an areapreserving way. This method is based on the ...

Interpolation by geometric algorithm
We present a novel geometric algorithm to construct a smooth surface that interpolates a triangular or a quadrilateral mesh of arbitrary topological type formed by n vertices. Alt...

Piecewise smooth surface reconstruction
We present a general method for automatic reconstruction of accurate, concise, piecewise smooth surface models from scattered range data. The method can be used in a variety of ap...

Shadow Carving
The shape of an object may be estimated by observing the shadows on its surface. We present a method that is robust with respect to a conservative classification of shadow regions...

The Correspondence Problem in Topological Metric Mapping - Using Absolute Metric Maps to Close Cycles
In Simultaneous Localisation and Mapping (SLAM) the correspondence problem, specifically detecting cycles, is one of the most difficult challenges for an autonomous mobile robot. ...
